A 7-year-old child develops 100 degrees of true myopia, which may continue to rise if the child does not pay attention to his or her eye habits.
Myopia is a common eye disease, a type of refractive error that usually develops in childhood, and most patients with low to moderate myopia can gradually stabilize their myopia in adulthood. Most patients with moderate to low myopia can stabilize their myopia gradually in adulthood. However, as the demand for eye care is greater in adolescence, myopia is likely to increase further.
At present, a 7-year-old child with 100 degrees of true myopia is more likely to experience myopia growth later in life if he or she does not pay attention to his or her eye habits and uses his or her eyes for long periods of time at close range. Children need to develop good eye habits and do more outdoor exercise to control the growth of myopia.
It is recommended that children with myopia should consult a hospital in a timely manner to assess their condition and follow the doctor’s instructions for treatment.
