Answer to Question 1

A

Answer to Question 2

A
Feedback:
Nutritional counseling by nurses and dietitians is more effective and efficient than that done by dietitians alone. Physicians do not normally provide nutritional counseling, and dietitians alone cannot reinforce what is taught because they are limited in the amount of times they are in contact with the client. Teaching can include the client's family; nutritional counseling should include the client.

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
