What are some simple things I can do to help my child see better?

For the optimal visual comfort for kids, a few simple steps can be taken all day long:

• Relieve tired eyes by encouraging your child to have visual breaks from constant near focus by looking away far or by covering their eyes with the palm of their hand without touching them
  
  
• Encourage your child to sit more than 12 inches away from the computer display

• Have your child sit away from the TV at a distance of 6 times the size of the screen (if the screen is 30 inches wide, your child should sit 180 inches away)
