Lifestyle Blamed for Rise in Myopia in East Asia: "A rise in myopia, or nearsightedness, in east Asia is due to lifestyle changes and not genetics, a science magazine said on Wednesday."

"The magazine said the rate of myopia in India is about 10 percent but that 70 percent of 18-year-old men of Indian origin in Singapore have myopia."

Too much reading is bad. :)
