Bengaluru Sees Increase in Myopia and Astigmatism Cases

Many people in Bengaluru are having more trouble seeing clearly.

This is because of vision problems called refractive errors, like nearsightedness (myopia) and astigmatism.

These problems are happening more often, especially to kids, young adults, and people who spend a lot of time looking at screens.

Doctors think this is happening because we use screens more and play outside less.

To help, a new advanced laser treatment has been created.

Refractive errors make it hard for your eyes to focus, so things look blurry.
