Abstract: the myopia rate of 3-year-old children in China is 3.0%; The myopia rate of 6-year-old children was 12.2%; By the age of 17, the myopia rate was as high as 84.6%. Myopia above 600 degrees belongs to high myopia. The complications of myopia are very common, and its proportion is also increasing., According to the latest global myopia epidemic report, by 2050, there will be 4.758 billion people with myopia in the world, accounting for 49.8% of the total population; There are 938 million people with high myopia, accounting for 9.8%, of which 1 million will be blind! Who do you mean by the huge myopic population that suddenly emerged more than 30 years later? Of course, it means today’s children!, The incidence of myopia in Asian people is early, and the myopia rate increases with age., For example, the myopia rate of 3-year-old children in China is 3.0%; The myopia rate of 6-year-old children was 12.2%; By the age of 17, the myopia rate was as high as 84.6%. Myopia above 600 degrees belongs to high myopia. The complications of myopia are very common, and its proportion is also increasing. In China, the high myopia rate of 10-year-old children is 0.7%, and that of 17-year-old children is 13.9%., Such a high prevalence of myopia is related to our genes, and the influence of myopia genes on Asian children is twice that of European children. Even if they emigrate overseas, Asian children are more likely to be nearsighted than European children., According to the latest research published in May 2016, scientists found that 10 genes are related to children’s myopia: five genes lead to children’s myopia at the age of 7.5, However, the degree will be stable in the future (chrng, cacna1d, LAMA2, cyp26a1 and BMP4); there are five genes that cause myopia in children at the age of 7.5, and the degree will continue to grow (prss56, KCNQ5, tox, ZIC2 and shisa6). In the future, preventing myopia and treating myopia complications will be an arduous task for ophthalmologists all over the world. What about parents? We can’t sit idly by! To prevent myopia, we need to start with dolls and work together with the whole family – Outdoor activities every day! Outdoor activities are the simplest and most economical way to prevent children’s myopia Way!, Why? Because sunlight is bright enough, it can promote the nerve cells in the retina of the eye to secrete dopamine. Dopamine is a substance that makes people happy. Only happy eyes will not be short-sighted! Meta analysis has confirmed that outdoor activities can prevent myopia in children.,

and
Asians have an early onset of myopia, and the myopia rate increases with age.
for example, the myopia rate of 3-year-old children in China is 3.0%; The myopia rate of 6-year-old children was 12.2%; By the age of 17, the myopia rate was as high as 84.6%. Myopia above 600 degrees belongs to high myopia. The complications of myopia are very common, and its proportion is also increasing. The high myopia rate of 10-year-old children is 0.7%, and that of 17-year-old children is 13.9%. The high prevalence of myopia in

is related to our genes, and the influence of myopia genes on Asian children is twice that of European children. Even if they emigrate overseas, Asian children are more likely to be nearsighted than European children. According to the latest research published by

In the future, preventing myopia and treating myopia complications will be an arduous task for ophthalmologists all over the world. What about parents? You can’t sit back! The prevention and treatment of myopia needs to start with the baby, and the whole family needs to work together – outdoor activities every day!
is the simplest and most economical way to prevent children’s myopia!
why? Because sunlight is bright enough, it can promote the nerve cells in the retina of the eye to secrete dopamine. Dopamine is a substance that makes people happy. Only happy eyes will not be short-sighted! Meta analysis has confirmed that outdoor activities can prevent myopia in children.
in Guangzhou, China, scientists conducted a very meaningful myopia intervention experiment, adding a 40 minute outdoor activity class to 952 first grade pupils every day. 3 years later, the incidence rate of myopia decreased significantly. What a powerful 40 minutes!
sunlight has a great impact on children’s eyes, even more than close eye use and parents’ genes! The Sydney youth vascular and eye study (saves) found that the key factor leading to myopia in 12-year-old children is the time of outdoor activities, rather than more close eye use and parents’ myopia. That is to say, even if parents are myopic and spend a long time doing homework and playing computer, as long as children ensure outdoor activities for more than 2 hours a day, they can prevent the early occurrence of myopia.
Note that the protective effect of outdoor activities is only effective for the eyes of children who are not myopia. For children with myopia, outdoor activities can not inhibit the growth of ocular axis and lose its protective effect.
the myopia rate of Chinese children has exceeded 10% since the age of 6, because after school, Chinese children spend most of their time sitting in the classroom; After school, the city lacks outdoor activities, and children stay at home all the time, which leads to a sharp reduction in outdoor activities every day.
therefore, Chinese parents should pay close attention to their children’s outdoor activities before the age of 6 to delay or avoid the occurrence of myopia.
