Uhlolisiso lwakutshanje lubonisa ukuba impilo yamehlo yabantwana neyokubona ngokufuthi ayijongwa ngabazali. Uphando, iimpendulo zesampulu ezivela kubazali abayi-1019, zityhila ukuba umzali omnye kwabathandathu akakaze azise abantwana babo kugqirha wamehlo, ngelixa uninzi lwabazali (ipesenti ezingama-81.1) bezise umntwana wabo kugqirha wamazinyo kulo nyaka uphelileyo. Imeko yombono eqhelekileyo ekufuneka ijongwe yi-myopia, ngokwenkampani, kwaye kukho inani lonyango olunokuthi lucothise ukuqhubeka kwe-myopia ebantwaneni, kulutsha kunye nabantu abadala abancinci.
Ngokophando, i-80 yepesenti yazo zonke izifundo zenzeka ngombono. Nakuba kunjalo, iziphumo zolu phando lutsha zibonakalisa ukuba abantwana abaqikelelwa kwi-12,000 kwiphondo liphela (i-3.1 pesenti) baye bafumana ukwehla kwindlela abaqhuba ngayo esikolweni phambi kokuba abazali baqonde ukuba kukho ingxaki yokubona.
Abantwana abayi kukhalaza ukuba amehlo abo akalungelelaniswanga kakuhle okanye ukuba banobunzima bokubona ibhodi esikolweni. Ezinye zezi meko ziyanyangeka ngokuzilolonga okanye ngeelensi zamehlo, kodwa azinyangwa ukuba azibonwa. Abazali abaninzi banokungenelwa ngokufunda ngakumbi ngendlela inyameko yamehlo ekhuselayo enokunceda ngayo ekugcineni abantwana babo baphumelele ezifundweni.
Isinye kwisithathu sabazali, esithathe inxaxheba kolu hlolisiso lutsha, sibonise ukuba imfuno yabantwana babo yeelensi zokulungisa yabonwa ngexesha lotyelelo oluthe rhoqo kugqirha wamehlo. Ngo-2050, kuqikelelwa ukuba isiqingatha sabemi behlabathi siya kuba ne-myopic, kwaye ngakumbi malunga, i-10 yepesenti ephezulu ye-myopic. Ngokukhula kweemeko ze-myopia phakathi kwabantwana, uviwo olubanzi lwamehlo ngugqirha wamehlo kufuneka lube yeyona nto iphambili kubazali.
Ngophando olufumanise ukuba phantse isiqingatha (ipesenti ezingama-44.7) zabantwana abasokola ukubona phambi kokuba ziqatshelwe isidingo sabo seelensi ezilungisayo, uvavanyo lwamehlo nogqirha wamehlo lungenza umahluko omkhulu kubomi bomntwana.
Umntwana omncinci uba yi-myopic, ngokukhawuleza imeko inokuthi iqhubele phambili. Ngelixa i-myopia inokukhokelela kumonakalo omkhulu wokubona, iindaba ezimnandi zezokuba ngovavanyo lwamehlo rhoqo, ukuqala kwasebuncinaneni, inokubanjwa kwangoko, iqwalaselwe kwaye ilawulwe.
