Keratoconus may be suitable for children around 7 years old and above, and in case of hereditary myopia may be started at around 6.5 years old and above.
Keratoplasty usually refers to a special type of rigid corneal contact lens that can change the refractive power of the cornea by altering the curvature of the cornea so that the focus of the external image can fall on the retina. Keratomileusis is a lens that corrects myopia by shaping the cornea.
Keratoplasty has the effect of delaying the onset and development of myopia, controlling or delaying the lengthening of the eye’s axis, and avoiding permanent damage to the fundus of the eye.
Children around 7 years old are in the developmental stage of their eyeballs, and prolonged over-exertion of their eyes or frequent use of electronic devices may affect their vision. Corneal reshaping lenses can correct and protect your child’s vision.
When wearing keratoplasty lenses, you should pay attention to eye hygiene and cleanliness, try to wear them at night, and go to the hospital in time if necessary.
