Abstract: premature infants are prone to myopia: children born 2 weeks or more prematurely often have myopia in childhood. The mechanism of myopia in these children is the same as that in low birth weight infants., According to statistics, among the 1.3 billion people in China, the incidence of myopia is as high as 25%. Among them, the myopia rate of school-age children is 30-40%, and that of middle school students and college students is as high as 70-80%. Experts pointed out that to prevent myopia, we need to start with children and understand the factors leading to children’s myopia, which is conducive to the prevention and treatment of myopia., Which children are prone to myopia?, 1. Parents are myopic, and their children are prone to myopia: the genetic degree of myopia increases with the deepening of the degree. Generally speaking, myopia below 300 degrees has little to do with heredity; Myopia of 300-600 degrees is closely related to heredity; Almost all myopia above 600 degrees is related to heredity., 2. Children with low birth weight are prone to myopia: children with birth weight less than 2500 g are prone to myopia before puberty. This is mainly due to the congenital dysplasia of low birth weight children and the long development caused by adverse factors after the day., 3. Premature infants are prone to myopia: children born 2 weeks or more prematurely often have myopia in childhood. The mechanism of myopia in these children is the same as that in low birth weight infants., 4. Children with poor sleep are prone to myopia: during the acceleration period of children’s growth and development, if children sleep less, it will cause myopia in some children., 5. Children who use their eyes too early are prone to myopia: some parents contact their infants with mobile phones, computers and televisions too early, while the eye wall of infants is weak. Excessive use of eyes too early will lead to excessive expansion of the eye and early elongation of the eye axis, laying hidden dangers for the near future., 6. Children with poor eye habits are prone to myopia: some children read and write incorrectly in strong light, dark room or shaking carriage, bow back and crooked head, eyes too close to books, incorrect pen holding posture, long-term fatigue, etc. will easily lead to myopia.,
according to statistics, the incidence of myopia in China’s 1.3 billion population is as high as 25%. Among them, the myopia rate of school-age children is 30-40%, and that of middle school students and college students is as high as 70-80%. Experts suggest that the prevention of myopia needs to start with children and understand the factors leading to children’s myopia, which is conducive to the prevention and treatment of myopia.
which children are prone to myopia?
1. Parents are myopic and their children are prone to myopia: the genetic degree of myopia increases with the deepening of the degree. Generally speaking, myopia below 300 degrees has little to do with heredity; Myopia of 300-600 degrees is closely related to heredity; Myopia above 600 degrees is almost related to heredity.
2. Children with low birth weight are prone to myopia: children with birth weight less than 2500 g are prone to myopia before puberty. This is mainly due to the congenital dysplasia of low birth weight children and the prolonged development caused by adverse factors.
3. Premature infants are prone to myopia: children born 2 weeks or more prematurely often have myopia in childhood. The mechanism of myopia in these children is the same as that in low birth weight children.
4. Children with poor sleep are prone to myopia: in the accelerated period of children’s growth and development, if children sleep less, it will cause myopia in some children.
5. Children who use their eyes too early are prone to myopia: some parents contact their infants with mobile phones, computers and televisions too early, while the infant’s eye wall is weak. Excessive use of their eyes too early will lead to excessive expansion of the eyeball and early elongation of the eye axis, laying hidden dangers for the near future.
6. Children with poor eye habits are prone to myopia: some children read and write incorrectly in strong light, dark room or shaking carriage, bow back and crooked head, eyes too close to books, incorrect pen holding posture, long-term fatigue with eyes, etc. will easily lead to myopia.
how to find children’s myopia?
and
parents should carefully observe their children’s every move in their daily life. If they find that their children are slower and clumsy than other children of the same age, or they love to tilt their heads, frown and squint when watching things, watch TV close, often rub their eyes with their hands, do not pay attention in class after school, can’t see the blackboard clearly, their academic performance drops or are close to reading distance, If visual fatigue symptoms such as eye soreness, pain and dizziness occur within half an hour of reading, you should take your child to a professional institution in time to diagnose the child’s vision problems.
and
experts suggest that under normal circumstances, children should go to professional institutions for regular vision examination from 6 months old. For children aged 3 to 6, whether their eyesight is good or bad, it is necessary to go to a professional institution for a comprehensive examination, because some eyesight problems have no obvious abnormal symptoms at the beginning, but the effect will be better if they can be examined early, found, prevented and treated early. Parents must urge their children to develop good eye habits and regularly check with professional institutions every six months.
