During the winter vacation, the child is nearsighted and afraid of growing more. Is there any way to control it?

Control children's access to electronic products

Electronic products have bright colors and strong visual stimuli. Using these electronic products at close range and for a long time is not good for children's vision development. Children's eyeballs are constantly watched and adjusted for a long time, which can easily lead to myopia. Sometimes dry eye occurs because of staring at the screen for a long time. Therefore, the time for using electronic products should be well controlled. It is recommended to use it for about 20 minutes to relax your eyes at a distance.

Increase outdoor activities

Research shows that outdoor exercise for two hours a day and 10 hour a week can effectively prevent myopia among teenagers and reduce the incidence of myopia by 10%. The intensity of sunlight is hundreds of times higher than that of indoor lighting. On the one hand, high-intensity illumination can narrow the pupil, deepen the depth of field and reduce blur, thus inhibiting the occurrence of myopia. On the other hand, the stronger the light, the more dopamine is released, and dopamine can also inhibit the occurrence and development of myopia.

Observe the child's abnormal performance and check it in time.

If you find that your child likes to squint, tilt his head and watch TV, read books and watch TV at close range, or blink frequently, you need to take your child for an eye examination as soon as possible.

In fact, experts suggest that children from 3 to 6 years old should have a comprehensive optometry every year and establish a refractive development file. Every child is born with farsightedness. With the growth of age and the habit of using eyes at close range, he gradually developed from "hyperopia" to "myopia". Therefore, early examination of axial length, corneal curvature and vision can take preventive measures to protect children's "hyperopia reserve" from being consumed and effectively prevent the occurrence and development of myopia.
