Awareness - Warning for Mobile Phone Users

Recently, an increasing number of 30-40 year-old patients are seeking medical attention due to using mobile phones in the dark.
Direct glare would cause irreversible eye macular degeneration that leads to rapid deterioration of vision.
Contracting maculopathy  (eye cancer) means waiting for loss of sight because modern medicine cannot treat, let alone cure it.
The bright phone in the dark with close-up view &
high-energy directed at the eyes will damage the macula of the eye.
However, viewing the hand phone in the dark not only causes macular degeneration. It initially causes dry eyes, cataracts and eventually loss of sight.
Early lesions of the eye have to be treated with laser or injection of steroids.
Friends remember:
In order to look after ourselves and our families, remember not to turn off the lights if viewing the mobile phone.
