FAQ
What is a healthy distance from a screen according to EyeKid?
Scientists advise maintaining an arm's length from a screen, or at least 12 inches. EyeKid uses this recommendation to prompt children to keep a safe distance, significantly reducing the risk of myopia.
What is myopia and how does EyeKid help prevent it?
Myopia, or nearsightedness, requires glasses because the eyeball is too long, causing light to focus in front of the retina. EyeKid helps prevent this by ensuring children don't focus on screens at close range for extended periods.
Can my child bypass EyeKid?
While a child can technically leave EyeKid, the app provides instructions on how to temporarily block other apps using Apple's Screen Time feature. This helps ensure compliance with safe viewing practices.
