How to prevent children's myopia
Eye health is vital to children's learning, life and growth. However, with the development of modern society, more and more children have myopia. In order to help children prevent myopia, the following suggestions will be made from four aspects.
1. Keep good eye habits
Good habit of using eyes is an important factor to prevent myopia. First, children should keep a proper distance when watching TV, using electronic equipment or reading books. The best distance is 50-60 cm away from the object. Secondly, after learning, eye use and other activities, you should have an eye rest, and take part in eye relaxation activities every 40 minutes, such as looking near and far, rotating the eyes, etc. In addition, children should avoid wearing myopia glasses for a long time, and appropriately carry out outdoor activities. The synthetic vitamin D in the sun is helpful for eye development.

2. Reasonably arrange learning time and posture
Long term eye use is a major cause of myopia in children. Therefore, parents should reasonably arrange children's learning time and posture. First of all, the daily learning time should not be too long, and it is recommended that each learning time should not exceed 40 minutes. Secondly, keep the correct sitting posture, use suitable tables and chairs and a well lit environment.

Parents should ensure that the light in the learning and living areas is bright and even, and avoid too bright or too dark environments. In addition, avoid using dazzling fluorescent lamps and desk lamps that are too focused. When using electronic equipment, reduce the brightness of the screen and the irritation of blue light to the eyes.
