Zhongshan Eye Hospital: prevention and control of myopia

In recent years, myopia has become one of the common vision problems of children and adolescents. In order to help people better understand and master the prevention and control methods of myopia, Guangzhou Zhongshan Eye Hospital has proposed a series of scientific and effective measures. This article will elaborate on the prevention and control methods of myopia from four aspects: eye exercises, outdoor activities, vision protection equipment and living habits.

Eye exercises: relieve eye fatigue and effectively prevent myopia

Eye exercises is a way to relieve eye fatigue through eye movement and relaxation, which is of great significance to prevent myopia. First, multiple blinks can effectively lubricate the surface of the eyeball and reduce the occurrence of dry eye. Secondly, eye movement, up, down, left, right eye movement and other actions can exercise eye muscles and improve the ability of eye adjustment. Finally, by adjusting the distance, striking the eyebrows, massaging the temples and other actions, it can promote the microcirculation of the eyes and increase the blood supply of the eyes.

It is suggested that eye exercises should be carried out every day with an interval of about 15 minutes and 5 minutes each time, so as to ensure that the eye muscles are properly rested and exercised.

Outdoor activities: breathe fresh air to prevent further deterioration of myopia

The occurrence of myopia is closely related to long-term close eye use, and outdoor activities can make the sight distance longer, reduce the adjustment intensity of the eyeball to close objects, and have a significant effect on preventing myopia. At the same time, outdoor activities can keep children away from the temptation of electronic products, so that their eyes can get more exercise and relaxation.

It is recommended to arrange outdoor activities for a certain time every day, such as outings, mountain climbing, playing ball games, etc., to ensure that children have at least 2 hours of outdoor activities every day.

Vision protection appliance: use correctly to prevent myopia from worsening

Modern technology provides some useful aids and equipment for myopia prevention and control. Myopic glasses, contact lenses, anti blue glasses, etc. are important representatives of vision protection appliances. When selecting and using these appliances, be sure to follow the doctor's advice and guidance to ensure that they are properly worn and used correctly.

In addition, parents should guide their children to use electronic products correctly and strengthen the management of screen time. Avoid staring at the electronic screen for a long time, maintain a certain visual distance, and rest your eyes at the right time, which will help reduce the risk of myopia.

Living habits: make reasonable arrangements to prevent myopia from worsening

Good living habits are very important to prevent the occurrence and further aggravation of myopia. First, keep a good reading posture, pay attention to the reasonable arrangement of book distance and light; Secondly, ensure enough sleep time to give the eyes a full rest; Finally, maintaining a balanced diet and proper physical exercise will help improve the body's immunity and reduce eye fatigue.
