The harm and influence of children's myopia
Children's myopia has become a common and serious problem in modern society. With the development of society and the progress of science and technology, children are easily exposed to various electronic products, and staring at the screen for a long time will lead to eye fatigue and vision loss. In addition, long-term close reading and lack of outdoor sports are also important reasons for children's myopia. Once children's myopia forms, it will bring great trouble to children's learning, life and social interaction, and seriously affect their visual development and quality of life.
In order to prevent the formation and development of children's myopia, Wuhan Children's Eye Hospital has formulated the following series of prevention and control measures for children's myopia.
Establish standard reading and eye habits
First, Wuhan Children's Eye Hospital advocates the establishment of standardized reading and eye use habits. Parents and teachers should teach children to use their eyes correctly and avoid lowering their heads and staring at the screen for a long time. In addition, to ensure adequate rest time, you should take a 10 minute rest every 60 minutes after using your eyes. Looking far away will help alleviate eye fatigue. Children should also maintain good reading posture, maintain a certain reading distance and angle, and avoid too close and too far distance.
In addition, Wuhan Children's Eye Hospital also recommended some activities that are beneficial to the eyes, such as eye movement, looking at the distance, etc. These activities help to exercise the coordination ability of the eye, avoid eye muscle fatigue, and promote the normal development of the eye.
Increase outdoor activity time
To help children prevent myopia, Wuhan Children's Eye Hospital encourages parents and schools to increase their children's outdoor activities. Outdoor activities keep children away from the electronic screen, exposed to the sun and nature, which is conducive to visual development and the prevention of hyperopia. Research shows that 2 hours of outdoor activities every day can significantly reduce the incidence of myopia in children.
In addition, Wuhan Children's Eye Hospital also reminds parents and schools to optimize the campus environment, increase greening and sunlight, and create a good visual environment. Schools and parents should jointly create a cultural atmosphere that focuses on eye care, so that children can develop good eye habits.
Scientific screening and regular inspection
In order to find and diagnose children's myopia as soon as possible, Wuhan Children's Eye Hospital advocates scientific screening and regular visual inspection. Schools and families should check their children's eyesight regularly. If they find abnormal eyesight, they should seek medical advice in time. The doctor will give corresponding treatment suggestions according to the specific situation of the child, such as wearing glasses, visual function training, etc.
In addition, in order to help children with myopia to correct and treat their eyesight, Wuhan Children's Eye Hospital also launched a series of treatment programs for children, such as corrective glasses, corneal shaping glasses, etc. The expert team of the hospital will develop a personalized treatment plan based on the child's age, condition and vision needs to help the child restore vision.
Summary
The prevention and control of children's myopia is a complex and lasting process, which requires the joint efforts of parents, schools and hospitals. Wuhan Children's Eye Hospital is committed to helping children prevent and control myopia by establishing standardized reading and eye use habits, increasing outdoor activity time, scientific screening and regular inspection and other measures. Only through the joint efforts of the whole society can children stay away from myopia and grow up healthily.
