@elonmusk @Lukewearechange screen time is linked to eye disease, myopia! 2 yo spend up to 2 hrs a day on screens. In SG ~75% of teenage kids have myopia. Same stats in the region too. 50% of the world will have myopia by 2050, and 1 in 5 of those will be at risk of blindness. https://t.co/JMGmMECOkr

[Mo Dirani @MoDirani1]

@MediaMICEgroup Thank you so much for the interview. You guys rock! Putting eyes & #myopia on the world stage is so important, even more so with the emergence of the #metaverse kids can enjoy #tech but not at the expense of their vision & eye health. Looking out for the next gen 🤗 @plano_app

[Media MICE @MediaMICEgroup]

We talked to Mo because he launched the world’s first science-based parental control application, planoApp, with a vision to “Keep all eyes healthy in our digitized world.” Take it away @MoDirani1...

@AcademicChatter Responding to a harsh editorial written about my paper by X sitting down the corridor from me. It was so amazing to write this VIP letter, go thru the fun & easy sub process… see X & act all cool. X could’ve just called me, but that’s not fun, & they would’ve been 1 pub down. 🤦‍♂️
