Many mothers often have questions: what degree and type of my child's myopia belongs to? Today we will introduce you to the classification method of myopia.
There are many kinds of myopia, according to the degree of myopia, there are mild, moderate and high myopia; according to the refractive component classification, there are refractive myopia and axial myopia; according to pathological changes, there are simple myopia and pathological myopia; according to the eye adjustment effect, there are false myopia and true myopia.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="5" > classified according to the degree of myopia</h1>
Low-degree myopia: myopia degree is less than -3.00D (i.e. 300 degrees)
Moderate myopia: myopia degree is -3.00D ~ -6.00D (i.e. 300 degrees ~ 600 degrees)
High myopia: myopia is greater than -6.00D (i.e. 600 degrees)
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="23" > classified according to refractive components</h1>
Axial myopia: the length of the eye axis exceeds the normal range, and the outside parallel light enters the eye before focusing on the retina. Usually the normal eye axis length of adults is about 24mm.
Refractive myopia: the length of the eye axis is normal or basically within the normal range, mostly due to the excessive curvature of the cornea or lens, the refractive force is beyond the normal range, and the external parallel light enters the eye before focusing on the retina.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="24" > classified according to whether pathological changes have occurred in the eye</h1> area
Simple myopia: the degree of myopia is within -6.00D, and there is no pathological change in the fundus.
Pathological myopia: pathological changes in fundus of varying degrees may occur due to the growing axis of the eye. Compared with normal people, the risk of retinal detachment, tearing, holes, and macular bleeding in pathological myopia is much greater.

Pseudomyopia: Pseudomyopia is relative to true myopia, not true myopia, but a state of myopia. Due to the long-term close use of the eye, the ciliary muscle is in a continuous tension, spasm state can not be relaxed, when looking at the distance, the vision is not clear, the illusion of myopia appears, a part of the pseudo-myopia through rest and relaxation, the ciliary muscle tension is eliminated, and the vision is gradually restored.
True myopia: True myopia, also known as axial myopia, is due to congenital or acquired factors (such as not paying attention to eye hygiene), so that the front and back diameter of the eyeball (that is, the eye axis) becomes longer, resulting in parallel light incident to the eyeball, the focus falls in front of the retina and can not be imaged clearly.
Next, I would like to share with you a case of tuina treatment for myopia in the outpatient clinic of professor Yu Juan.
Li Mou, female, 6 years old, vision loss for 1 year, the child's parents reported that the vision loss was found during the school physical examination, and was diagnosed with refractive error in both eyes, common exotropia, now the right eye myopia 300 degrees with 50 degrees astigmatism, left eye hyperopia 75 degrees with 175 degrees astigmatism, binocular axis OD: 23.81mm OS: 22.64mm. Parents of the children heard that Professor Yu Juan had a remarkable effect in treating myopia, so they came to our department for treatment, and the symptoms were: blurred distant objects in both eyes, clear near-sighted objects, dry eyes, easy fatigue of the eyes, thin body, general, yellow face, sleeping well, two stool tones, red tip of the tongue, thick moss in the tongue, weak pulse. Diagnosis of traditional Chinese medicine: myopia, spleen and stomach weakness. Diagnosis of Western medicine: refractive error. Treatment principles: dredge the meridians, relieve spasm and eyesight, and nourish the spleen and stomach. The first tuina treatment before the naked eye vision measurement of the right eye: 0.3, the left eye: 1.5.Professor Yu Juan used the "Four Ming Acupuncture" technique to measure the vision of the right eye to 0.5, the left eye 2.0 to see 2, and then after 2 more treatments in the next 4 days, the naked eye vision was: right eye: 1.2 look 2, left eye: 2.0.
It can be seen that Professor Yu Juan's pioneering "Siming Acupoint" tuina has a remarkable effect on the treatment of children's vision decline. "Siming Acupoint" technology as an appropriate technology in Shandong Province, not only for myopia, amblyopia, astigmatism, glaucoma, nasolacrimal duct obstruction, children after cataract surgery and other low vision diseases have a good effect, we aim to give full play to the advantages of traditional Chinese medicine, to contribute to the prevention and treatment of children and adolescents with low vision diseases!
