Haiyan is 7 years old. Her parents gave her an iPad as a gift for her birthday. A month later,her eyesight(视力)dropped to 300 degrees. This is serious for such a young child.
Many children in China are facing the same problem: iPad using is bringing problems to their eyesight. The problem is so common that newspapers even call the iPad the "No. 1 killer of children's eyesight!"
