Visit Myopia Exhibition at National Libraries

Learn more about eye care and myopia prevention at this roving exhibition.

Brought to you by SNEC’s Myopia Centre, SERI and Wildtype Books, the first stop of the myopia exhibition kicked off at Marine Parade Public Library for a period of three months from March to May this year.

With the younger crowd in mind, the various installations are designed in the illustrative style of the Amanda the Panda children’s book series, while the language is kept simple and direct. Parents can also get important information on short-sightedness — from its prevalence to common myths about the eye condition and consequences of leaving myopia untreated.

Interactive elements are also incorporated to make the learning process fun and engaging. There is even a 3D structure showing the eye anatomy!

As travel restrictions remain due to the pandemic, there is no better time than now to explore our island city. This exhibition makes for a great educational excursion for both young and old.
