Answer to Question 2

The answer is both yes and no. It is no in the sense that no one federal body or agency has as its sole mandate to establish, implement, and evaluate national nutrition policy. However, the U.S. does have food assistance programs, national nutrition and health objectives as found in the Healthy People 2020 initiative, regulations to safeguard the food supply and ensure the proper handling of food products, dietary guidance systems, monitoring and surveillance programs, and food labeling legislation.

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.
