Nowadays, children's academic pressure is increasing, and many children spend most of the day reading and writing homework. On the other hand, electronic products are also becoming more and more developed, and all kinds of mobile phones, tablets, televisions, etc. attract children's attention. These reasons make children use their eyes excessively, which can easily cause myopia.
This makes glasses a must-have for many children and teenagers. However, children and adults with glasses have an essential difference, children's body growth is not yet complete, and at the same time the adjustment ability of the eyes is particularly strong, children's glasses must pay special attention to and careful observation of the frame and lenses, choose the right children's glasses is good.
Your child's myopic glasses should be replaced in time
First of all, children are in the stage of physical growth and development, the interpupillary distance will change with the growth of the body, and not changing glasses in time with the change of interpupillary distance will aggravate myopia.
Secondly, children's natural hyperactivity leads to faster lens wear, and myopic children wearing worn lenses will affect the normal development of their vision and aggravate the development of myopia. If you change your glasses when you can't see clearly, the degree of myopia in children has increased by 100 to 200 degrees. Therefore, do not wait until the old glasses you wear are no longer clear before you change to new glasses.
In view of the above problems, parents should regularly take myopic children to regular hospitals every six months to review the myopia, and recommend a pair of glasses about a year to change without problems. This is to adjust the degree, but also to update, if the mirror has scratches or affect the function of vision correction should also be replaced in time, and in order to better use glasses, in life also need to maintain glasses regularly, in order to be able to make myopic glasses in a better working state.
It is recommended that parents take their children to the hospital every six months to one year for mydriatic refraction, and reasonably choose whether to change glasses according to the child's eye myopia. Usually, it is also necessary to teach children to do daily lens maintenance and regular cleaning agent to clean glasses.
Do glasses need to be worn all the time?
Some parents feel that if they wear glasses all the time, their eyesight will be aggravated, and the glasses will not be taken off. In fact, this statement is incorrect. People with shallow degrees below 300 degrees do not have to wear glasses all the time, and can rely on their own preferences. Moderate myopia above 300 degrees is recommended to wear glasses all the time, so that it is more convenient for life, there will be no problems caused by unclear vision, and the deepening of myopia can be avoided.
In fact, if you still do not pay attention to the eyes or do not know how to use the eyes scientifically after wearing the right glasses, myopia may still deepen, but it is not the reason for wearing glasses. Therefore, even after the child is equipped with glasses, he must still pay attention to eye hygiene everywhere, especially watching less TV and playing less games.
Myopia as a common eye abnormality, its function is not in the prevention and treatment. For adolescents and children in the developmental stage, good eye hygiene habits, adequate outdoor activities, balanced diet and other comprehensive prevention and control measures for myopia are indispensable elements to achieve the best myopia control effect.
