Status of children's vision problems
In recent years, children's vision problem has gradually become an increasingly serious public health problem. According to the statistics of Shanghai Eye Hospital, the myopia rate of children in China has been rising year by year, especially urban children. With the rapid development of social economy, children are facing more and more learning pressure. The popularity of electronic products is high, and there are more and more cases of using eyes in short distance and for a long time.
First of all, family environment is one of the important factors of children's vision problems. Parents do not have a strong sense of vision protection for their children, and often ignore their children's eye hygiene; Secondly, poor eye habits such as long-term use of electronic products, close eye use, and irregular eye use can also lead to children's vision problems; In addition, genetic factors and familial clustering of myopia can not be ignored.
Facing the current situation of children's vision problems, we need to solve this problem from many aspects.
Strengthen family education
Family education is an important part of children's vision protection. Parents should pay more attention to children's eye hygiene and create a good eye environment. First, remind children to maintain good eye posture, use electronic products correctly, and limit the use time. Secondly, encourage children to participate in outdoor activities and maintain appropriate indoor and outdoor visual switching.
In addition, parents should establish a correct concept of eye use for children, educate them to maintain good eye use habits, find vision problems in time and diagnose and treat them as soon as possible to avoid further aggravation of vision problems. The importance of family education cannot be ignored in the protection of children's eyesight.
Strengthening eye health education in schools
As a place for children to concentrate on learning, schools bear the important responsibility of cultivating children's habit of using their eyes correctly. We should strengthen the education of eye care in schools and guide students to use their eyes correctly. First of all, the school should arrange appropriate recess activities to guide students to stay away from electronic products and have eye rest and visual relaxation.
Secondly, in the teaching process, teachers should pay attention to the situation of students' eye use and correct students' bad eye use habits in time. Carry out publicity and education activities on eye care knowledge, increase students' awareness of vision protection, and improve their awareness of vision protection.
In addition, the school can cooperate with the eye hospital to regularly organize students to have vision examinations, and carry out relevant vision protection lectures to provide scientific and effective vision protection guidance.
Establish a cooperation mechanism with hospitals
Children's vision problems need timely diagnosis and treatment. Establishing a cooperation mechanism with hospitals to provide professional ophthalmic services for children is one of the important ways to solve children's vision problems. Shanghai Eye Hospital has rich experience and professional medical technology in children's vision protection.
Through cooperation with the hospital, we can provide children with comprehensive vision examination and professional treatment suggestions, timely identify children's vision problems and give effective intervention. Hospitals can use advanced equipment and technology to play an important role in ensuring children's vision health.
Strengthen social publicity and policy support
The solution of children's vision problem needs the joint efforts of all sectors of society. The society needs to pay more attention to children's vision protection. Through strengthening social publicity, the public's awareness of children's vision problems and awareness of vision protection will be enhanced.
Government departments should also increase policy support for children's vision protection, formulate relevant laws and policies, and promote the development of children's vision protection. At the same time, all sectors of society should actively participate in the work of vision protection, and jointly provide children with a good eye environment and vision protection mechanism.
