Abstract
Myopia is a clinically significant and growing problem around the world. A major cause is the increasing time spent indoors by children, for example, playing video games, studying, and watching television. Exposure to outdoor light is known to be protective, and prevents the onset and also delays the progression of myopia. Embodiments of the present invention provide simulated continuous outdoor light in either a closed or open feedback loop sufficient to retard myopia progression.
