What is myopia?

Myopia is a common eye problem, also known as myopia or myopia. Myopia refers to the fact that the long axis of the eye is too long, making it impossible for light to focus on the retina on the lens, resulting in blurred vision of distant objects and clear vision of nearby objects.

Myopia is usually caused by genetic and environmental factors. Long term overuse of eyes, poor eye posture, long time close reading, lack of outdoor activities and other factors may increase the risk of myopia.

The symptoms of myopia include blurred distant objects, eye fatigue, headache, etc. If not treated in time, myopia may further worsen and lead to a serious decline in vision.

Methods of treating myopia

There are many options for the treatment of myopia. The specific method to choose depends on the patient's age, symptoms and eyeball condition.

A common treatment is to wear myopia glasses or contact lenses. These lenses can help correct the focusing problem of light on the lens, thus improving the far vision.

Another treatment is to change the shape of the cornea through corneal refractive surgery to improve myopia. These operations include laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK), surface etching (PRK) and corneal cerclage (ICL).

In addition to the above methods, ophthalmologists may also suggest that patients take some lifestyle changes, such as reducing long-term eye use, often looking at distant scenery, often carrying out eye massage, etc., to slow down the speed of myopia deepening.
