The study protocol was approved by the Ethics Committee of the Argentinian Council of Ophthalmology. The tenets of the Declaration of Helsinki were followed, and thus verbal informed consent was obtained from the children and written informed consent was obtained from their parents prior to enrolment. Consecutive unselected children (outpatients) who attended the clinic during late summer and early autumn at school entrance (February and March 2020) to control their current lens prescription or perform a routine ocular exam in a private practice office were interviewed by two trained ophthalmologists (LFI & AB). The ocular exam consisted of visual acuity testing during subjective refractometry, followed by application of cycloplegia. This consisted of one initial drop of 0.2% proparacaine (Alcon) as a topical anesthesia and two drops of 1% cyclopentolate (Alcon) at 5 min intervals. Forty-five minutes after instilling the last drop, an automated refractometry was performed (averaged over three repeated measurements). The main outcome measurements were the mean spherical equivalent refractive error of the autorefractometer calculated as sphere + ½ cylinder value. Spectacles were prescribed according to preferred practice guidelines of the American Academy of Ophthalmology.</p><p id="par0030" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Patients undergoing any treatment to arrest myopia progression (e.g., atropine 0.01% drops or outdoor exposure counselling) were excluded from the study. While the subjects were waiting for the cycloplegic effect, the parents filled a questionnaire about myopia-related factors for their children. The questionnaire was developed in Spanish for this particular society, and it was based on the Sydney Myopia Study<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0105"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">21</span></a> and the Guangzhou Myopia Trial<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0050"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">10</span></a> questionnaires. This questionnaire asked how much time a child spent outdoors per day after school and on weekends, how long they spent using electronic devices, and how long they spent reading and writing. It also asked about the hours of schooling (4 or 8 h a day) and if the child had tutorial classes after school. Incongruent answers (such as “24 h a day” of outdoor exposure) were recorded in only five cases, and were excluded. Parents did not raise questions about the comprehension of the questionnaire, which was straightforward and had been pre-tested for comprehension in an unpublished pilot study three months before this study. The average daily hours of outdoor exposure were calculated bearing in mind that children in Argentina are obliged to go outside during breaks exactly 30 min for every 4 h of schooling. The formula used for calculating outdoors time for each child was: Mean time outdoors = ((breaktime at school + travelling time to school * 2 + weekdays time outdoors) * 5) + (weekends time outdoors * 2) + weekly sport time at school)/7, where “breaktime at school” was equal to 0,5 h or 1 h, corresponding to 4 h or 8 h of schooling respectively. Sport time at school was equal to 2 h per week in the 4 h per day schooling schedule and 4 h per week in the 8 h per day schooling schedule, both in primary and secondary schools in Argentina.</p><p id="par0035" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">For the purpose of classifying the different refractive errors, the present study followed the protocol of the Refractive Error Studies in Children:<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0110"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">22</span></a> such that myopia was considered as a spherical equivalent refractive error <−0.50 diopters (D), hyperopia as >+2.00 D, and emmetropia as between −0.50 and +2.00 D. Parametric values were expressed as means and standard deviations. The data were compiled in an Excel spreadsheet and converted to an SPSS database (SPSS version 15, SPSS Inc., Chicago, IL, USA). Dependent continuous variables such as daily hours of reading or outdoor exposure were compared among refractive groups by one-way ANOVA with post-hoc Scheffe tests. Logistic regression analysis was performed with the dichotomous variable “myopia–non-myopia” with all the environmental variables, such as tutorial classes, outdoor exposure, and reading habits, controlled by age and gender. A value of <span class="elsevierStyleItalic">p</span> < 0.05 was the cut-off for statistical significance.</p></span><span id="sec0015" class="elsevierStyleSection elsevierViewall"><span class="elsevierStyleSectionTitle" id="sect0075">Results</span><p id="par0040" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">This study involved 115 children aged 10.48 ± 3.65 years (range 5–18 years), with 56.5% being girls. Children had 8 h per day of schooling in 62.6% of cases, with the rest spending only 4 h in school each day. Only 14.8% of the sample had tutorial classes after school. The refractive error was similar for both eyes (r = 0.97%), so only the right-eye spherical equivalent was used for the present analysis.

The main finding in this preliminary study was high outdoor exposure in children of suburban Buenos Aires, a country where the prevalence of myopia is very low.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0075"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">15</span></a> These unselected children who were not under counselling for increased outdoor exposure or atropine 0.01% drops to arrest myopia progression represent a sample of naive patients attending for an ocular health checkup. The prevalence of myopia in this study was higher than population values for Argentina possibly because myopic children attend frequently to control their prescription.

In this case we can argue that children that go more time to school would spend less hours outdoors, so in a population sample the results could even be higher in outdoor exposure for our country. Besides, the use of questionnaires is not necessarily accurate. These have been tested for repeatability in previous studies,<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0050"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">10,21</span></a> but should be tested against objective measurements so see if they have possible limitations.</p><p id="par0075" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Future studies in Argentina with questionnaires of myopia risk factors are expected to be population based and not clinical practice based (as the present study), to test logistic regression analysis of these risk factors, which in this case did not show significant differences. Family history of high myopia will also be studied, to include this probably genetic background. Interestingly, this study shows some characteristics of the study habits of Argentinian children. Educational reviews have shown that the Chinese education system introduces a high load of reading and writing of different languages from early school years onwards,<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0095"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">19</span></a> with more than 50% of the population reaching university or tertiary education, while in our country, despite a high literacy rate of almost 98%, only 20% of the population reach superior education.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0125"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">25</span></a></p><p id="par0080" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">In conclusion, the present study show that children in the suburban area of Buenos Aires spend a comparatively higher average number of hours per week outdoors (27,60 h).
