If your child’s eyes are growing too fast, you can control the progression of myopia by practicing good eye habits, using keratoplasty lenses, and using low-concentration atropine eye drops.
The rapid growth of myopia in children is related to genetic factors and bad eye habits. Genetic factors cannot be changed at present, but patients can control the growth of myopia by changing their eye habits and taking appropriate treatments.
Patients should pay attention not to use their eyes for a long time, and minimize the use of electronic products such as cell phones, TVs, computers, etc., so as to control the growth of their eyesight by developing good eye habits. Patients can also wear keratoplasty lenses for correction or use low concentration atropine eye drops as prescribed by the doctor to slow down the growth of refractive error as much as possible.
It is recommended that children with refractive error should be seen promptly for evaluation and treatment as prescribed by the doctor.
