  As we know, the leading causes of myopia is eye fatigue. While playing table tennis can eliminate the eye fatigue. When we play table tennis, our eyes must be tightly fixed on the shuttle, near and far, rotating changing fast ball, which make the eyeball keep moving. In this way the blood circulation can be enhanced so that it can eliminate or reduce eye fatigue and then can prevent myopia.

  Many children have myopia due to the long time reading and too much close work. The eye muscles are in strain for a long time and lose their elasticity. By playing table tennis, eyes have to focus from near to far and the eye muscles are no longer in strain. So parents can supervise and lead the children to play games, let the children watch TV less, use less computer, reduces the prevalence of myopia.
