So how can you protect your child's vision?
We have sorted out some knowledge points to help parents protect the vision health of children in the form of questions and answers
Q: Are electronics the culprits of myopia?
Whether it is looking at electronic products or reading books for a long time, it can lead to myopia. But electronics can't be said to be the culprit that causes myopia. Children in the growth and development period of the eyeball, staring at electronic products at close range for a long time, the number of blinks becomes less, which is easy to cause dry eyes and cause eye fatigue, which is very easy to cause myopia problems in children in the long run.
Q: Is itchy eyes in children eye fatigue?
In the face of electronic products for a long time, causing dry eyes and astringent eyes, parents need to intervene in their children's use time, enhance air humidity, and ensure their children's work and rest rules.
Q: What foods are good for vision?
You can give your child more red, yellow and green foods, such as eggs, spinach, blueberries and so on. Taking in balanced nutrition is not only conducive to children's physical development, but also closely related to eye health.
Q: What is the easiest way to prevent indoors during online lessons?
The easiest way is to rest more!
Studies have shown that after a period of close-up use of the eyes, transient myopia drift will occur, and when the frequency of transient myopia induced by this close-range work is high and lasts for a long time, it may become permanent myopia.
Therefore, it is very necessary to increase the frequency of rest to break this continuous close-up eye. Parents are advised to follow the principle of 20 to 20 to 20 to 20 to control the length of the child's eyes, that is, to look at the distance of 20 feet (6 meters) for 20 seconds after 20 minutes.
Finally, don't forget eye exercises to protect your eyes. Remind your child to do one day at home to relieve eye strain.
When the epidemic is making a comeback, when you are at home, you should not only care about your children's learning problems, but also pay attention to your children's eye health. Protect your eyes, it's urgent.
