The incidence of myopia in our youth is among the highest in the world. It is very hard for parents to accept that their children need glasses because of myopia. This is something that parents don’t want to see and can’t accept. So parents will take their children around and ask for a “cure for myopia”. “Doctor, is there a good cure for myopia?” is the most common question that eye doctors hear. This is one of the most common questions that ophthalmologists hear. Please listen carefully to the professional doctor’s answer: First, at present, there is no effective treatment for myopia. This is a very disappointing answer, and you can’t help but ask “why”. This is because of the structure of the myopic eyeball. The eyeball is equivalent to a small-aperture imaging optical system composed of a set of convex lenses. Normal eye, refractive interstitium (including the cornea, lens, vitreous humor and intraocular fluid, the role of the convex lens) focal length and the length of the eye axis to match, can be accurately focused on the retina, so clear vision. In myopic eyes, the eyeball is larger than normal, the eye axis is long, that is to say, the anterior and posterior diameters of the eyeball are too long, the refractive focus can only fall in front of the retina, so the vision is blurred. Teenagers are in the process of continuous growth and development of the body, the eyeball and other organs, in the same way, continue to grow, the eye axis can only continue to lengthen, and can not become shorter. Therefore, myopia can only continue to deepen. At present, there is no way to make the eyeball smaller and the eye axis shorter. Therefore, there is no real treatment for myopia. Second, all the current methods to improve vision are called “correction of myopia” method. Myopia can be “corrected” through a variety of methods to improve vision. The most common are: 1) wearing frames, 2) corneal contact lenses (contact lenses), 3) corneal refractive surgery, and 4) IOL implantation. The safe and effective method for teenagers is to wear frames. Through the above methods, the direction and angle of light curvature can be changed, so that the focus can be shifted backward and then fall on the retina, thus seeing distant objects clearly. Third, are there any clear and effective methods to prevent and control the development of the disease? The answer is very positive: of course there are! 1. Wear appropriate eyeglasses in time. What nutrition is most needed for the normal development of the eye? Surprisingly, it is not food, but normal light and the stimulation of clear images projected on the retina. Compared with the state of not giving your child glasses and make it always blurred, give your child the right glasses, let him often see clearly, myopia progress rather slower. 2, increase outdoor activities, let the child’s eyes often bathed in sunshine. Hospitals in Beijing and Shanghai have coincidentally come up with the same name for their research programs on “prevention of myopia in young people” — “eye” bathing in the sun. Domestic and foreign research results show that the extension of outdoor activities has a clear role in preventing myopia. 3.Keratoplasty lenses (OK lenses) With the extensive use of OK lenses under the guidance of ophthalmologists, its effectiveness in preventing myopia progression has been clinically recognized. However, it should be noted that there must be professional doctor’s guidance and regular review. 4.Ultra-low concentration of atropine eye drops has a certain effect on the prevention of myopia. A few suggestions for parents 1, correctly treat the child myopia, do not let the anxiety affect the child. 2, more with the child, personally bring the child to the hospital. 2, more with the children, personally take the children to embrace the nature, outdoor activities for the benefit of the body and mind. 3, once myopia occurs, find a professional doctor for help. 4. Believe that your child will have a bright future!
