It seems that all us addicts on these boards are at risk from developing myopia.
This appears to be a world-wide problem. In Singapore, 80% of 18 year old recruits are short-sighted, as are 50% of 12 year old (expected to rise to 70% by the age of 18) Swedish school children.
This affects employment.
So folks, make your appointments at the opticians and give up your plans to be policemen/firemen etc.

Watching too much television and spending too long in front of a computer is behind rising rates of short-sightedness, say scientists.

Police and other employers are having problems finding people who meet their requirements for good sight.

It's far too late. My vision's 20/700 and slowly getting worse. Since I'm a computer jock, I'm afraid it's never actually going to improve.
Someone I know DID say that the "magic picture" images that force your eye to focus in a "distance" work to help strengthen the eye and reduce some of the effects of nearsightedness. Unfortunately, I can't remember to do them all the time.
