Ms. Brainy, it might not be quite as crazy as it sounds. There's also
evidence that babies born during the late winter and early spring have
a significantly greater chance of developing schizophrenia during
their lifetime. This finding applies both north and south of the
equator, although the months of winter and early spring are
different. It's hypothesized that a virus during the second trimester
of pregnancy may be to blame.

But the research you sited is another correlational study, so maybe we
should withhold judgment for the time being.

...and besides, the authors are talking about severe myopia, not all
myopia.
