How to prevent myopia?
In recent years, the incidence of myopia has shown an obvious upward trend, which has brought certain risks to people's vision health. In addition to genetic factors, the overuse of electronic products and long-term close eye use are also the main reasons for the worsening of myopia. However, correct living and eye habits can effectively prevent the occurrence of myopia. Here are four effective ways to prevent myopia.
Maintain a good eye environment
First of all, maintaining a good eye environment is essential to prevent myopia. When using electronic products, pay attention to adjusting the brightness and contrast of the screen to avoid eye fatigue. After using eyes for a long time, you can properly perform eye relaxation exercises and gently rub eyes with your hands to relieve eye fatigue.
Secondly, we should reasonably arrange the time for study and work, and take proper rest and do eye exercises at regular intervals. Ensure at least 8 hours of sleep every day, and keep the eyes fully rested. In addition, it is also necessary to avoid staring at objects in close proximity for a long time, and to often look into the distance to relax the adjustment function of the eyes.
Finally, keep the indoor light bright, avoid excessively dim or dazzling light, pay attention to the balance of indoor and outdoor light, and reduce the irritation to the eyes.
Scientific and reasonable eye posture
Scientific and reasonable eye posture is also an important aspect of preventing myopia. First of all, you should maintain a correct sitting and standing posture. Do not look down or up at electronic products or books. Keep your eyes parallel to the object.
Secondly, use glasses or contact lenses correctly. If you have myopia, you should wear corrective glasses in a timely manner, and have regular eye rechecks. You should change the glasses in a timely manner according to the changes in the eyes. For people who need to use electronic products for a long time, they can choose anti blue light glasses or blue light filters to reduce the damage of blue light to eyes.
Finally, try to avoid eye damage, rubbing eyes or forcing myopia. For people with vision problems or eye discomfort, seek medical advice and treatment from professional ophthalmologists.
Scientific and reasonable eating habits
Scientific and reasonable eating habits also have a certain impact on the prevention of myopia. First, ensure adequate intake of vitamin A, vitamin C and vitamin E. These vitamins help maintain the normal function of the eyes and are particularly important for eye health. You can eat more foods containing these vitamins, such as carrots, oranges and nuts.
Secondly, appropriate intake of protein, which is one of the important components of the eye, plays an important role in the repair and regeneration of eye tissue. Fish, lean meat, bean products and other foods are rich in protein, which can be taken in moderation.
Finally, avoid overeating fried foods and foods with high sugar and salt, which have a certain negative impact on vision health.
Pay attention to eye hygiene
Attention to eye hygiene is also one of the important measures to prevent myopia. First, wash your hands frequently, avoid rubbing your eyes with dirty hands, and avoid infecting eye diseases. Secondly, do not share glasses and eye products to avoid bacterial infection. In addition, use a clean and moist eye hot compress to wet compress the eyes, which can alleviate the discomfort and fatigue of the eyes.
To sum up, the prevention of myopia requires comprehensive consideration from good eye environment, scientific and reasonable eye posture, scientific and reasonable eating habits, and attention to eye health. Only comprehensive adjustment of life and eye habits can effectively prevent myopia.
