Will wearing glasses for a long time make myopia increase

Long-term eyeglass wear does not increase myopia, either in adults over the age of 18 or in children under the age of 18 with progressive myopia. In adults, myopia is largely stable, so it does not increase with or without glasses. For children under the age of 18, previous studies have shown that myopia without glasses or with insufficient myopia may accelerate the development of myopia, but now there are some new views that if myopia, whether glasses are worn or not, whether the degree is enough or not, whether it is sufficient correction, undercorrection or overcorrection, the effect on myopia is not too great, so there is a difference in views. The overall point is that glasses are not ideal for controlling the growth of myopia, they can only correct the vision and allow the patient to see clearly. Nowadays, the ideal methods to control the growth of myopia are keratomileusis, also known as OK lenses, low concentration atropine, refractive lenses, defocusing soft lenses, defocusing frame glasses, etc. Parents can choose one or more methods to control the growth of myopia according to their child’s age, prescription, adaptation habits, and family conditions.
