It seems ECPs have made their bones with respect to the OTC availability of "plus" power eyewear (aka *readers*), even if clients end up using them for mild DV farsightness. We've gone over the supposed health-related issues many times before on this board. And, as an extension, we also now see OTC plus bifocals and even "stick-on" segments.
But what about that other poor step-child of need, the myope?
Q: Should light amounts of myopia (of any* kind) be made available as OTCs, and what potential harm is there compared with OTC plus?
Please take the poll, and then read the link below.

I'm interested in your thoughts...especially from the esteemed ODs that frequent here.
Thanks

*by "any"myopia, I mean any! (Caution: Trap ahead!)
