Bonkers article. Lots of products trying to find a "cure" for myopia progression by "bringing the outside in". Just go outside. That's it. Outside. It's free. Go.

I've been "outside" once. It's overrated.

Yeah, but getting people to change their behavior is really hard. I totally get why they’re trying all these things; nobody wants to give kids an extra hour of recess. Well, I do, but nobody else does.

Except that I need to drive for at least 40 minutes if I want that outside to include bearable noise levels and passable air. Never mind some basic visual appeal.

Laws and culture in my area have turned most open spaces into wasteland.
