We can probably all recount at least a dozen weird and alarming things parents, teachers, and older siblings told us about our eyes when we were kids. For instance, we'd be permanently cross-eyed if we didn't stop making those faces at our brother or we'd go blind from reading in the dark. But maybe, just maybe, we could find redemption by eating lots of carrots. Here are a few common myths and misconceptions.

我们都能回忆起自己小时候，父母、老师和哥哥姐姐们曾经告诉过我们的那些有关视力怪异又吓人的事情。比如，如果我们再继续向哥哥扮鬼脸，以后就会变成斗鸡眼，又或者在黑暗中阅读眼睛会瞎掉。但是，如果我们吃很多很多的胡萝卜，也许我们的眼睛还有救。以下就是关于视力的几个常见的误解和迷思。

MYTH #1: IF YOU CROSS YOUR EYES, THEY'LL STAY THAT WAY.

误解1：如果你装成斗鸡眼，那么你将一直是斗鸡眼

Crossed eyes occur when your eyes don't look the same way at the same time. There are six muscles attached to each of our eyes that, guided by signals from the brain, control their movements. When your eyes don't align, the brain gets two different images. Over time, this can cause more serious vision issues. That's a real problem, but it's not caused by making your eyes cross on purpose for short periods of time.

斗鸡眼只有在你的两只眼睛没有同时看向同一个方向的时候才会出现。我们的每只眼睛周围有六块肌肉，它们由大脑中的信号控制。你的两只眼睛若是没有对齐，那么你的大脑就会得到两幅不同的图像。随着时间的流逝，这会造成更加严重的视力问题。不过你短暂地装一下斗鸡眼并不能达到这种效果。
