Computer Games making eye-sight better -
06-28-2003, 08:45 AM
I read in a magazine called newscientist that despite the arguements about computer games rotting kids minds, it actually makes kids eye site better. The article says that, significant tests were taken and children that play computer games more often have 15% better eye sight than others, and just after play 10 hours of computer, subjects had improved eye sight.
Wonder if this could be a new way to train snipers, make em play PC games all the time to increase there sniping abilities??
what do you think?

sounds like BS to me, I heard that PC screens destroy eyesight, like books, it's all about focusing up close.

About the only thing computer games might do is improve your reaction times.
and if youre a nerd.......give you an ego boost for finishing first in an online shooter.

i think you were misinformed. Games have made children react better from action games, but long hours at your computer will kill your eyesight, though i can still see fine
