The Importance of Preventing the Development of Children's Myopia
Myopia is one of the common ophthalmic problems in children, which seriously affects children's vision and learning ability. It is vital to prevent the development of children's myopia, which can help them maintain good eyesight and avoid long-term dependence on glasses or even surgery. The following four aspects will discuss how to prevent the development of children's myopia.
Reasonably arrange eye use time
Children get information through their eyes most of the time in study and life. Therefore, reasonable arrangement of eye use time is one of the important means to prevent myopia.
First of all, children should pay attention to keeping a proper distance when using electronic devices, and avoid looking at the screen closely for a long time. Secondly, often let children carry out visual relaxation activities, such as looking at distant scenery, looking at the sky in the distance, etc., which will help ease the fatigue of eye muscles.
In addition, it is also important to control the time of eye use. Each eye use should not be too long, usually for 30 minutes. After each eye use, take a proper rest to let the eyes have a full rest and recovery.
Scientific reading protects vision
Good reading habits are vital to children's eyesight health. Keep correct posture and distance when reading, and avoid reading in dark or too strong light environment. Choose books suitable for children's age, and avoid reading books with too small font size or too heavy visual load to avoid increasing the burden of using eyes.
In addition, parents should also pay attention not to let their children excessively indulge in reading electronic devices, because reading by staring at the screen for a long time will increase the burden of children's eyes and increase the risk of myopia.
For preschool children, parents should guide them to develop good reading habits, let them develop an active interest in reading, improve reading skills, and reduce eye fatigue when reading.
Combination of indoor and outdoor activities
Outdoor activities are one of the important means to prevent myopia. Regular outdoor sports and activities for children can effectively relieve eye fatigue. Adequate outdoor activities can give play to children's visual hyperopia, help regulate the development of the eye axis, and reduce the occurrence of myopia.
In addition to letting children play outdoors, parents should also pay attention to their children's indoor environment, keep the indoor light bright, and avoid too dark environment for reading and other activities. Keep the balance between indoor and outdoor activities, and let children develop good living habits.
Regular eye examination
Regular eye examination is an important link to prevent the development of myopia in children. Ophthalmologists can detect changes in myopia early and take timely intervention measures through fundus examination, vision test and other methods.
In Chengdu, Aier Eye Hospital is a professional eye hospital with good reputation, advanced equipment and experienced doctors. Children can go to Aier Eye Hospital for eye examination regularly to prevent the development of myopia in time.
Summary
It is very important to prevent the development of children's myopia. Reasonable arrangement of eye use time, scientific reading, combination of indoor and outdoor activities and regular eye examination are the four key aspects. Parents and children work together to develop good eye habits, which can reduce the probability of myopia and protect children's vision and healthy growth.
