  Many pet owners think that cats are less trouble than dogs. First of all, cats can be completely in-door pets. Because they use litter boxes, cats can be left indoors and their owners do not have to come home periodically to let them out. In addition, cat owners can sleep in on weekends, unlike dog owners who have to get up and let the dogs out in the morning. Furthermore, if cats are completely indoor pets, they require fewer trips to the vet for vaccinations. For example, dog owners must be sure to have their pets checked for heartworm every spring and give them medication monthly to prevent diseases caused by mosquito bites and other insects. And finally, cats may be more independent and do not seem to suffer as much from loneliness when their owners are away.

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.
