Wearing glasses and playing with a cell phone will not cause myopia to increase, but playing with a cell phone for a long period of time may cause myopia to increase.
The growth of myopia is related to genetic factors and bad eye habits, wearing glasses and playing cell phone, if the time control is reasonable, it will not cause myopia growth. However, if the patient is addicted to the cell phone and plays the cell phone continuously for too long, no matter whether he wears glasses or not, it may cause visual fatigue and lead to the increase of myopia.
Therefore, it is recommended that patients should control the time of playing cell phone, for example, after playing cell phone for about half an hour, they should stop and close their eyes to refresh themselves or look at a distant place for 5~10 minutes, so that their eyes can be relaxed, which can alleviate the visual fatigue, and try to control the increase of myopia.
Patients with increasing myopia should go to the ophthalmology department of the hospital in a timely manner, and the doctor will determine the current degree of myopia through optometry to guide the patient to test and match the glasses, and also guide the patient to use the eyes in a reasonable way.
