Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book investigates the relationship between school conditions and myopiaâ"commonly known as nearsightednessâ"among German students in the early 1900s. The author, a renowned ophthalmologist, was commissioned by the Prussian Ministry of Education to examine the eyes of over 1,400 students in three higher-level institutions. His primary goal was to ascertain whether or not there was a link between the onset of myopia and the educational environment, particularly with regard to classroom lighting and other factors thought to contribute to the condition. The author's findings, published in this book, provided valuable insights into the connection between environmental factors and myopia, laying the groundwork for future research and advancements in school hygiene.
