Nanny-level myopia prevention and control tutorial to learn about!
Pre-myopia: Outdoor activities
Before a child has myopia, outdoor activities are the most effective and economical way to prevent and control myopia. Some studies have found that the protective effect of outdoor activities on vision may be due to the release of dopamine by the retina stimulated by high-intensity outdoor light, and the increase in dopamine release may have the effect of inhibiting the growth of the eye axis.
It should be noted that the key to outdoor activities is "outdoor effective light", not the content, mode and intensity of the activity. Parents need to ensure that their children spend at least 2 hours outdoors in light greater than 1000 lux per day, and at least 14 hours per week. Outdoor activities can be carried out intermittently, increasing the number of outdoor activities and ensuring the duration of outdoor activities.
Post-myopia: drug means
At present, the scientific prevention and control methods that have been scientifically proven to be effective are mainly divided into drug methods and optical methods.
Clinically, the drug that is recognized as having a better effect on myopia prevention and control is low-concentration atropine eye drops. However, low-concentration atropine eye drops are only one of the means to prevent myopia progression, and are often used as a joint means in combination with optical means such as eyeglasses, defocus lenses, and OK lenses.
Postmyopia: optical means
As for optical means, they include functional glasses, orthokeratology lenses, etc. So which one should you choose? Don't worry, after reading the picture below, I believe you will have a general understanding!
It is worth mentioning that orthokeratology lens is one of the effective methods to control the rapid growth of myopia in the world, and it is also a technology with a long clinical application time and the most evidence-based medical research.
