Xu Zhe Guangzhou Ophthalmology Department: How to prevent myopia?
Myopia is one of the common visual problems in ophthalmology, which brings various inconveniences to people's daily life. However, myopia is not inevitable, we can take some measures to prevent the occurrence of myopia. As a professional eye hospital, Xu Zhe of Guangzhou Ophthalmology Department has provided some effective methods and suggestions to help people prevent myopia.
Reasonable eye use
Rational use of eyes is one of the most important ways to prevent myopia. By reasonably arranging the work and rest time of the eyes, the fatigue of the eyes can be reduced and the risk of myopia can be reduced.
First, people should control the time of using electronic products. Staring at the electronic screen for a long time will lead to eye fatigue and increase the risk of myopia. It is recommended to take a break every 30 minutes, stay away from the screen and close your eyes for a while.
Secondly, it is also important to maintain correct eye posture. When reading books or using electronic equipment, you should keep your body posture upright, keep a certain distance from the target, and avoid using your eyes excessively.
Finally, adjusting the indoor environment also needs attention. Keep good lighting conditions to avoid eye irritation caused by too strong or too dark light.
Scientific diet
Scientific diet is essential to eye health. Proper nutrition and proper intake of vitamins and minerals will help protect the eyes and reduce the risk of myopia.
First, rich vitamin A helps protect the retina, which can be obtained by taking yellow and green vegetables and fruits, such as carrots, spinach, etc.
Secondly, vitamin C can enhance the antioxidant capacity of the eyes, which can be taken from citrus fruits, tomatoes, etc.
In addition, proper zinc and Omega-3 fatty acids are also important for eye protection. Zinc can be obtained by eating meat, seafood, etc., while Omega-3 fatty acids are found in fish.
Appropriate outdoor activities
Proper outdoor activities can help prevent myopia, especially for children. Outdoor activities can give your eyes full rest and relaxation.
The outdoor light is relatively soft, which helps to adjust the focusing ability of the eyes on near and far objects. In addition, the visual stimulation far away from the near distance can help adjust the length of the eye axis and reduce the occurrence of myopia.
Therefore, parents should encourage their children to participate in outdoor activities and ensure a certain amount of outdoor time every day to help prevent myopia.
Regular eye examination
Regular eye examination is one of the important measures to prevent myopia. Regular inspection can find eye problems in time and take corresponding treatment and prevention measures.
Ophthalmologists can perform visual inspection, fundus inspection, etc. to help identify myopia symptoms early. If myopic symptoms are found, doctors can give appropriate glasses and treatment plans to correct vision problems in time.
Regular ophthalmic examination is not only applicable to children, but also should be carried out once a year for adults to ensure eye health.
Summary
The prevention of myopia needs to start from many aspects, including reasonable use of eyes, scientific diet, appropriate outdoor activities and regular eye examinations. Xu Zhe Guangzhou Ophthalmology Department provides professional ophthalmic services to encourage everyone to pay attention to eye health and take positive measures to prevent myopia. Through the implementation of these methods, we can protect the health of the eyes, reduce the risk of myopia, and improve the quality of life.
