Answer a lot of questions about children’s first glasses

Abstract: Children’s vision test is best twice a year. When it is found that their vision is lower than the average level of children of the same age, they must have optometry. When children’s eyesight drops, some will directly tell their parents, but many may not tell their parents that parents should pay more attention to observation at ordinary times., 9-year-old Xiaoni is a third grade student, but recently, Xiaoni’s mother found that she often blinks. She likes to stand in front of the TV and watch TV. She yells that her eyes are tired when she does her homework for a while. So, at the weekend, the couple took Xiaoni to the optometry Center for examination. The examination result was myopia R: – 1.00 / – 0.75 * 180L: – 1.25 / – 0.75 * 180. Glasses are recommended., Now it’s Xiaoni’s mother’s turn to worry: the child is so small, can’t you give her glasses? Will wearing glasses deepen myopia?, In this regard, when children are nearsighted, parents will be as upset as Xiaoni’s mother and have many questions to ask. The following are the most common questions for parents. Those with children at home should look carefully., When should I take my children to have their eyesight tested?, Children’s vision test is best twice a year. When it is found that their vision is lower than the average level of children of the same age, they must have optometry. When children’s eyesight decreases, some will directly tell their parents, but many may not tell their parents that parents should pay more attention to observation at ordinary times. If you find that children often squint at things, watch TV, sit closer and closer, and like to watch TV with their eyes tilted or their heads tilted, you should have optometry in time.,   2. Is our child true myopia or false myopia?, Many scholars believe that there is no need to distinguish between true and false myopia, but the concept of false myopia is particularly popular in China. Therefore, when parents come to the hospital, they usually ask whether it is false myopia. Pseudomyopia refers to the early stage of myopia in children. Due to long-time close eye use, the eyes are in a state of tension or spasm. Mydriatic optometry can be distinguished. If there is still myopia after mydriasis optometry, it is true myopia.,   3. Should I wear glasses?,

Xiao Ni, 9, is a third grade student. Recently, Xiao Ni’s mother found that she often blinks. She likes to stand in front of the TV and watch TV. When she does her homework for a while, she yells that her eyes are tired. Therefore, at the weekend, the couple took Xiaoni to the optometry Center for examination. The examination result was myopia R: – 1.00 / – 0.75 * 180L: – 1.25 / – 0.75 * 180. It is recommended to wear glasses.

now it’s Xiaoni’s mother’s turn to worry: the child is so small, can’t she wear glasses? Will wearing glasses deepen the degree of myopia?

and

in this regard, when children are nearsighted, parents will be as annoying as Xiaoni’s mother. They have many questions to ask. These are the most common questions for parents. Those with children at home should look carefully. When should

and

take their children to have their eyesight tested?

children’s vision test is best twice a year. When it is found that their vision is lower than the average level of children of the same age, they must have optometry. When children’s eyesight decreases, some will directly tell their parents, but many may not tell their parents that parents should pay more attention to observation at ordinary times. If you find that children often squint at things, watch TV, sit closer and closer, and like to squint or squint their head to watch TV, you should have optometry in time.

  2. Is our child true myopia or false myopia?

and

many scholars believe that there is no need to distinguish between true and false myopia, but the concept of false myopia is particularly popular in China. Therefore, when parents come to the hospital, they usually ask whether it is false myopia. Pseudomyopia refers to the early stage of myopia in children. Due to long-time close eye use, the eyes are in a state of tension or spasm. Mydriatic optometry can be distinguished. If there is still myopia after mydriasis optometry, it is true myopia.

  3. Should I wear glasses?

parents often ask, should our children wear glasses for 50 degree myopia? Here we need to correct a concept: 50 degrees of hyperopia – no degree – 50 degrees of myopia. All eyes in this range are emmetropia, that is, 50 degrees of myopia is not myopia at all. Of course, you don’t need to wear glasses. Generally, I suggest wearing glasses when mydriasis is more than 100 degrees. If it is only dozens of degrees and does not affect learning and life, you can observe it for a period of time and then review it.

  4. Can’t you take off your glasses in your life?

and

many parents are reluctant to give their children glasses because they think they have to wear them all the time. Indeed, because you are nearsighted, the refractive state is unlikely to reverse, and generally speaking, the degree will certainly continue to deepen, so you need to wear glasses all the time. But what I want to say here is that even if you don’t wear glasses, your myopia degree is there, and it will become deeper and deeper. The deepening of the degree is not caused by wearing glasses, but by the development of the child’s refractive state. It’s like an ostrich burying its head in the sand when it has a problem. In fact, it doesn’t solve any problem.

  5. Just don’t want to wear glasses?

first of all, your children can’t see clearly. The greater the degree, the less they can see far away, which may affect their study and daily life. Secondly, the eyes are always in a state of unclear vision, which is easy to lead to visual fatigue, eye swelling and pain, severe headache, etc. Thirdly, long-term in this state may lead to imbalance of regulation and collection, and strabismus. Finally, the long-term inability of the eyes to see clearly may make the degree develop more rapidly.

  6. Do children need to wear glasses all the time?

and

generally recommend wearing glasses all the time. However, according to clinical experience, some doctors believe that when the degree is low (myopia is below 200 degrees), they can wear it when looking far and not when looking near; In the case of more than 200 degrees, it is recommended to wear glasses all the time.

  7. Is the degree of glasses good enough or less?

at present, many studies believe that foot correction, that is, the degree matching is better, may delay the development of myopia.

  8. Wear glasses all the time. Will your eyes be deformed?

many people think that after wearing glasses for a long time, their eyes become more and more convex. In fact, the convex eyes are caused by the increase of degree and the lengthening of eye axis. The degree of myopia deepens by 300 degrees and the eye increases by 1mm. Therefore, the deeper the degree, the longer the eyes are, the more prominent the eyes look. This is not caused by wearing glasses.
