Treatment of myopia in children in the Eye Hospital of Wuhan People's Hospital
Children's myopia has become a quite common problem in modern society, which has brought a threat to children's vision health. In the Eye Hospital of Wuhan People's Hospital, a variety of treatment methods are specially provided for children's myopia. The following will be detailed from four aspects: eye exercises, corrected vision, medication and surgery.
Eye exercises
Eye exercises is a simple and easy way of eye care, which can reduce the degree of myopia in children. Eye exercises recommended by hospital experts include keeping away from electronic products, blinking regularly, eye relaxation exercises, etc. Keep away from electronic products means to reduce the time of using TV, mobile phone, tablet and other electronic products to avoid eye fatigue. Regular blinking can promote tear film lubrication and protect the eye surface. Eye relaxation exercises can alleviate eye fatigue and enhance eye coordination by adjusting focus and eye movement.
In addition, the hospital also provides courses for children's myopic eye exercises. Through the guidance of professional coaches, children can learn and practice eye exercises correctly. Such comprehensive eye care measures can effectively improve the situation of children's myopia.
Corrected vision
In addition to eye exercises, the Eye Hospital of Wuhan People's Hospital also provides methods for correcting vision. The most common method is to wear glasses. The professional optometrist in the hospital will customize appropriate glasses for children according to their vision. In this way, children can wear glasses to correct myopia and reduce the speed of vision decline.
In addition, the hospital also recommends the use of auxiliary equipment such as vision correction trainers to help children improve their vision through specific visual training. This method can promote the development of children's vision to a certain extent, and improve the adaptability and adjustment ability of vision.
medication
In some cases, the hospital will also consider drug treatment to slow down the progress of children's myopia. At present, the commonly used drug treatment methods include the use of atropine eye drops with low concentration. This eyedrop can slow down the long axis speed of the eye axis by relaxing the eye muscles, thus preventing the increase of myopia in children.
However, drug therapy is not applicable to all children with myopia. The hospital will judge whether drug treatment is applicable according to the specific situation of each child, and monitor its efficacy and side effects when using drug treatment.
surgical treatment
Surgical treatment is also an option for children with severe myopia. The Ophthalmic Hospital of Wuhan People's Hospital has provided corneal refractive surgery and lens implantation and other treatments. Corneal refractive surgery can correct corneal diopter by laser and improve the degree of myopia. Lens implantation surgery is to implant intraocular lens into the eye instead of the original lens, so as to achieve the purpose of correcting myopia.
Surgical treatment is a more radical treatment method, which is suitable for children with severe myopia and severe vision decline. Before the operation, the hospital will conduct a detailed examination and evaluation of the patients to ensure the safety and effectiveness of the operation.
Summary
The Eye Hospital of Wuhan People's Hospital provides a variety of treatment methods to deal with children's myopia. The hospital strives to provide the most suitable treatment scheme for children with myopia through various means such as eye exercises, vision correction, medication and surgery.
