Nearsightedness is also highly correlated with high intelligence. It's why Northeastern Asians, one of the (if not the single) highest IQ populations on the planet have a large percentage of nearsighted people.

Could this be because reading can cause nearsightedness, and intelligent people, generally speaking, read more than less intelligent people?

I am a reader. Especially before I had a car and a job... I'd be reading at home all the time. I remember getting in trouble for it too because I couldn't put a good book down and would stay up until like 3am or so reading and attempting to make parents think I was asleep . My parents sometimes literally hid my books if it wasn't for school. Plus. I also requested books for my birthday last week and got like 3-4 books. My parents would tell me that my vision is no longer 20/20 because of all that reading that I did too. So...if they're right I'm not happy!
