Electronic Devices and your eyes
Opthalmologist, Dr. Holly Groh describes the impact on you and your children.
Good day,
The sun is shining here in Virginia and the crisp breeze yields thoughts of pumpkins, apple cider and Carter Mountain donuts. During the challenging times of the last week, I am grateful for all the blessings in my life.
Please share this email with friends and family, especially those with children.
The Virginia Medical Freedom Alliance is hosting a webinar on Tuesday, October 17th at 8 p.m. with Dr. Holly Groh. Dr. Groh is an opthalmologist in Louisiana who has witnessed the tremendous harm to our children’s eyes as a results of constant exposure to electronics in all the various shapes and sizes.
The eyes are not only a key to our hearts but to our brains. With over one-half of our brain receiving input from the eyes, what impact does this have on developing brains? How does the exposure to blue light effect our sleep-wake cycle? What are the developmental impacts of reading from a screen or working on a computer all day? Near sightedness, migraines, coordination? Could all theses be impacted by screen time?
Dr. Groh led a successful effort to pass state legislation that created medical oversight for students using school-issued digital devices. Dr. Groh then spearheaded a coalition of medical practitioners to craft ground-breaking health and safety guidelines for the use of school devices.
Join us on Tuesday, October 17 at 8 p.m. and learn the foundational steps to protecting ourselves and our children from the effects of SCREEN TIME.
