Physical activity and myopia in Danish children—The CHAMPS Eye Study

Abstract: The prevalence of myopia among Danish children was 17.9%. By logistic regression and slope analysis, we found no association between PA and myopia, in this first of its kind study based on objective and repeated PA data.

“…In a longitudinal study following these same children, objective physical activity measures were not significantly associated with longitudinal eye growth . A recent study that objectively assessed the physical activity of Danish school children has also shown that physical activity was not associated with axial length or spherical equivalent refraction (Lundberg et al, 2017). These findings suggest that the time involved in physical/sports activities does not appear to be the major factor underlying the association between myopia and outdoor time.…”
