How to prevent myopia

With the development of science and technology and the change of lifestyle, myopia has become a common problem worldwide. According to the statistics of experts from Chengdu Airui Eye Hospital, the myopia rate of Chinese school-age children has soared to more than 80%. In order to protect our eyesight, it is particularly important to prevent myopia. Next, we will discuss how to prevent myopia from four aspects: eye care, eye environment, healthy diet and scientific eye use.

Eye care

Eye care is the basis for preventing myopia. Through good eye care habits, we can reduce the burden of using eyes, promote eye blood circulation, and improve vision. First of all, it is very important to maintain a good eye posture. Avoid using your eyes for a long time or staring at the screen for a long time. Secondly, regular rest is also essential. Every 30 minutes, you need to rest for 5-10 minutes. Looking at the distance, closing your eyes to relax or doing appropriate eye massage can alleviate fatigue. In addition, keeping the room moderately moist and sufficient light is also the key to eye health care to avoid the eyes being in a dry and dark environment for a long time.

Eye environment

Good eye environment is very important to prevent myopia. First of all, keep a proper sight distance and the angle between the eyes and the screen. The distance between the computer screen and the eyes should be 50-70cm, and slightly lower than the horizontal line of sight. Secondly, keep a good light environment, avoid sun exposure when going out, and keep bright indoors to avoid reflected light. In addition, when using electronic equipment, you can consider wearing appropriate anti blue glasses to reduce the damage of the electronic screen to the eyes.

Healthy diet

Diet is also an important aspect of myopia prevention. A balanced diet can provide sufficient nutrients for eye maintenance and repair. First of all, take more foods rich in vitamin A, C and E, such as carrots, oranges, grapes, etc. These foods are rich in antioxidants, which help protect the retina in the eyes. Secondly, increase the intake of foods rich in Omega-3 fatty acids, such as fish, nuts, etc., which will help improve the blood circulation of the eyes and reduce fatigue. In addition, try to reduce the intake of high sugar and high salt foods to prevent eye tissue damage.

Scientific eye

Scientific eye use is the core of myopia prevention. Reasonable control of eye use time and intensity can reduce the risk of myopia. First, control the time of eye use, avoid using eyes continuously for a long time, look far every other time, and adjust the eye focus. Secondly, reasonably protect your eyes, use appropriate screen and font size, and avoid reading too close or too long. In addition, the screen brightness and contrast can be properly adjusted to reduce eye fatigue when using eyes at close range.

To sum up, the prevention of myopia needs to start from four aspects: eye care, eye environment, diet and scientific eye use. Through good habits and reasonable lifestyle, we can effectively prevent myopia and protect our eyesight. Let's work together to protect our own and family's eye health.
