How to detect and treat myopia in children in time

  For a variety of reasons, the incidence of myopia in children remains high, and many parents want to find a good doctor to check their child’s vision, get an accurate eye exam, and get a good pair of glasses. But what is the degree of myopia in children? What kind of situation requires glasses? Is it good to wear glasses or not? Parents are generally confused and embarrassed about how to wear glasses scientifically.  Ophthalmologists remind parents that when you find that your child has one or more of the following symptoms, you should consider whether it is suffering from early myopia and take your child to a regular hospital for a comprehensive and detailed examination as soon as possible to avoid delays in treatment: 1, squinting often when looking at objects: myopic patients often squint when looking at things, because squinting when the eyelids can block part of the pupil, so as to reduce the scattering of light, which can temporarily improve and improve vision. This can temporarily increase and improve vision. Therefore, when your child is squinting a lot, you should consider that he or she may be suffering from early myopia.  2. Frequent blinking: Frequent blinking can, to some extent, relieve myopia and enhance visual acuity. Therefore, when your child shows symptoms of frequent blinking, you should consider whether he or she has early myopia.  3. Frequent eye rubbing: Some children who have trouble seeing objects because of myopia often rub their eyes with their hands in order to see objects better. Therefore, when you find that your child often rubs his or her eyes, you should take him or her to the hospital to have his or her vision checked.  4, often tilting the head to look at objects: Some children with early myopia often tilt their heads to look at objects. This is because tilting the head to look at objects can reduce the impact of scattered light on their vision. Therefore, when your child is found to often look at objects with their head tilted, you must take them to the hospital to check their vision and correct their wrong posture of looking at objects, so that they do not develop the habit of tilting their heads.  5, often frown: Some children with myopia have the habit of frowning. This is a way for them to try to improve their vision. But frequent frowning can cause the extraocular muscles to compress the eyeball, which in turn can speed up the development of myopia. Therefore, when your child is found to frown a lot, take him or her to the hospital for a vision check and to help him or her change the frequent frowning.  6, often pull the corner of the eye: a few children suffering from myopia, often pull the corner of their eyes with their hands to the outside. This can have the same effect as tilting the head and squinting the eyes. Therefore, when you find that your child has the habit of pulling the corners of his or her eyes, take him or her to the hospital to have his or her vision checked in a timely manner.  7. Strabismus: Some children with myopia often have the habit of strabismus (i.e., when one eye looks forward, the other eye involuntarily looks outward). Therefore, when you find your child has the habit of squinting, consider whether he or she has myopia.  8. Eyes close to things when looking at things: When your child always looks close to objects and complains about the darkness in the room when reading and writing, consider that your child may have myopia.  When your child often fails to greet people he or she knows, trips or bruises when moving in the dark, or cannot see the handwriting on the blackboard, consider whether your child has myopia.  Myopia can be real or pseudomyopia. If pseudomyopia is detected early, it can be restored to normal through active intervention, rather than becoming real myopia.
