The Optometry Clinic of the Fourth Hospital has introduced a professional “vision training” program to build a “fitness center” for the eyes. In the process of daily eye use, have you ever felt that your vision is good but you always feel headaches, eye swelling and blurred vision, which even affects the quality of life and work efficiency? Are you frustrated by the rapid growth of your own or your child’s nearsightedness? Do you find that your child’s reading speed is very slow and often serial? In fact, most of these problems are caused by visual dysfunction, and the application of visual training is one of the most scientific and effective solutions available. The Optometry Clinic of the Fourth Hospital has been committed to providing clear, comfortable and lasting vision for patients for a long time, and has invested a lot of energy in the research of visual training. It has also proved the scientific and effectiveness of vision training in solving binocular vision impairment, and has helped many patients with binocular vision impairment to obtain more comfortable vision! In the past, due to insufficient attention to the value of binocular vision and visual training, many visual function problems that could be solved by training were not properly addressed, causing great distress to patients with symptoms. As theories about visual function and visual training continue to improve, optometrists and the public have shown increasing interest in this issue in recent years, and the White House has issued a statement designating August as “Vision and Learning Month”. Vision training, also known as vision therapy, is increasingly recognized as an important component of ophthalmic vision treatment. Visual training, also known as vision therapy, is a series of training programs developed by a medical professional based on the patient’s specific visual condition through optical and psychophysical methods, just as fitness exercises can improve the body’s motor function and health status. Visual acuity, enhance visual skills, improve visual function, cure visual fatigue, eye movement disorders, dyslexia and other binocular visual diseases, and achieve the purpose of comfortable and coordinated use of both eyes. This will improve the visual function of the visual system, visual comfort, and improve and repair binocular vision abnormalities. The vision training program conducted at the optometry clinic of Harbin Medical University IV is like building a gym for the eyes! Vision training is not limited by age, and people of any age will achieve corresponding results with vision training. Vision is closely related to our daily life and without adequate visual skills, reading can lead to fatigue. Many common symptoms, such as visual fatigue, visually induced headaches, inability to sustain gaze when performing visually demanding tasks, and the tendency to get lost and reverse order, can be relieved by vision training. For patients in recovery from shock and head trauma, visual training is an even more important part of the process that cannot be ignored. The role of visual training in relieving visual fatigue and treating “visual subhealth”: With the speed of social development, people’s work pressure is increasing, and the time of close work is lengthening, especially for the “white-collar group” who are facing the computer for a long time, many people Although the vision is very good but long-term existence of headaches, eye swelling to see near the blurred symptoms, and even affect the quality of life and work efficiency. The patient’s symptoms are not effectively treated, but they are often diagnosed as conjunctivitis and the expense of eye drops. Through examination, we found that the majority of this group is due to the eyes are often in a state of regulatory tension, not enough relaxation caused by the symptoms of visual fatigue, through some simple regulatory training can bring help to patients. At present, we have carried out some training for under-regulation or decreased flexibility of regulation, such as sorting, reading, flipping mirror reading training, alphabet exercises, etc. The role of visual training in strabismus treatment: Healthy binocular vision requires normal simultaneous perception, fusion, and eventually fine dynamic stereo vision. Visual training can effectively solve these problems and establish a good binocular visual environment, which has excellent effect on the treatment of intermittent strabismus, reconstruction of binocular visual function after strabismus surgery, and establishment and consolidation of binocular visual function in patients with monocular amblyopia and refractive error. The problem of avoiding surgery in the treatment of strabismus has been achieved. The role of visual training in the treatment of amblyopia: Amblyopia is a relatively common childhood eye disease, usually manifesting itself as an eye without organic lesions, but with reduced visual acuity incompatible with the lesions corrected visual acuity lower than that of normal children of the same age. The amblyopic eye has reduced visual function due to disuse, so long-term training will help stimulate the amblyopic eye and promote the recovery of normal visual function. For amblyopia with different gaze properties, different training methods should be selected to correct the wrong gaze properties, help the patient to de-inhibit and restore normal visual acuity and binocular vision function. It is worth noting that both doctors and family members of amblyopic patients should seek early detection and treatment, and seize the best treatment time to improve the possibility of restoring normal vision. The role of visual training in myopia prevention and control: Adolescents are in a period of binocular vision development and are subjected to a greater eye load than adults, so the occurrence and development of myopia in adolescents has its own characteristics. The normal annual growth range for children is 50 to 75 degrees, and beyond this range is considered excessive growth. The occurrence of myopia in each child is closely related to the anatomy and physiology of the eye, eye habits, physical condition, and genetic factors. For example, the causes of myopia are refractive, curvature, axial, and regulatory factors, and different measures should be taken to address these causes. For example, for over-regulation myopia, progressive lenses, ciliary muscle paralyzing agents, negative reduction lenses and other methods can be used for prevention and control, while axial myopia is more suitable for RGP, keratoplasty lenses and other methods to prevent and control; in the optometry clinic of the Fourth Hospital of Harbin Medical University, it was found that many children’s myopia regulation problems are not over-regulation but lagging regulation, so the method of choice is to strengthen the regulation training rather than weakening relaxation, and for this type of patients, if they blindly weaken the regulation, they will be able to see the problem. For these patients, if they blindly reduce the application of regulation (such as the application of minus lenses, progressive lenses, presbyopic lenses or dilated eye drops), they will not only fail to achieve the purpose of myopia prevention and control, but will also aggravate the symptoms, increase myopia and even cause strabismus or refractive error. Not only is it a waste of money and time for parents and students, but it also causes irreparable damage to the vision of young people. At present, the most common people who undergo “visual training” in the optometry clinic of HUST are myopic adolescents. For these people, we first use standardized and comprehensive eye examinations to clarify the patient’s refractive status and determine the cause and nature of their myopia, and give targeted “individualized” protective measures for different causes and nature of myopia. We provide “individualized” protective measures for different causes and nature of myopia. We correct and optimize the deviations of the patient’s binocular adjustment, concentration, fusion and stereopsis, and establish a healthy and comfortable visual environment for the patient. The role of visual training in the prevention and treatment of presbyopia: Presbyopia, commonly known as presbyopia, should be said to be a physiological phenomenon of normal aging of the human eye, with decreasing regulation and hardening of the crystal, which used to be theoretically inevitable, but with the application of the latest technology, presbyopia can be delayed and avoided if training in regulation is done early to enhance the contraction ability of the ciliary muscle regulation. Visual training is an important part of optometric work. In countries with relatively advanced economies, visual training has been widely accepted and used as an effective rehabilitation tool for many patients with visual suboptosis, and has achieved the desired results. However, the current situation in China is that ophthalmologists focus more on the diagnosis and treatment of eye diseases, including medication and surgery. Optometrists continue to work with a single, traditional refractive correction, leaving many visual sub-healthy people without the attention they deserve. For example: visual fatigue, eye health care, high prevalence of myopia, rapid growth of myopia, etc. It is true that these common and frequent eye problems cannot be controlled and improved effectively in the long run by medication or treatment alone, so it is imperative to start visual training from eye protection and eye health by drawing on mature experience from abroad. With the convergence with the international optometric community and the gradual improvement of social civilization, people’s awareness of self-care of the eyes has increased significantly. According to years of observation and analysis of relevant cases, more and more people do not have eye diseases, but visual subhealth. Such as visual fatigue, can not see things lasting, slow reading speed, early presbyopia, myopia progress faster, eye dryness, headache and eye swelling, etc.. In particular, some refractive error customers have many of these phenomena. So how to solve these visual fatigue problems? How to control and relieve the occurrence of the above symptoms? It is the main responsibility of ophthalmologists to improve the comfort of people with visual subhealth. A good life starts from loving eyes!
