Some common problems with children’s first glasses!

  1. When should I take my child to the hospital for optometry?

and

children should have their eyesight checked every year. When their eyesight is lower than the average level of children of the same age, they must have mydriatic 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 take them to the hospital for 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 we 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.

and

generally, I suggest wearing glasses when mydriasis is more than 100 degrees, only dozens of degrees. If it does not affect learning and life, you can observe it for a period of time and recheck it.

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

many parents are reluctant to wear glasses because they think they have to wear glasses all the time.

and

are indeed, because you are nearsighted, the refractive state is unlikely to be reversed, and generally speaking, the degree will certainly continue to deepen, so you need to wear glasses all the time.

but what we want to say here is that even if you don’t wear glasses, your myopia degree is there, and it will get deeper and deeper. The deepening of the degree is not caused by wearing glasses, but the development of children’s refractive state.

and

clearly need to wear glasses but deliberately don’t let them wear them. 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. What if we 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.

again, long-term in this state may cause imbalance in regulation and collection, and strabismus in the eyes. 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 their eyes become more and more convex after wearing glasses for a long time. In fact, eye bulge is caused by the increase of degree and the lengthening of eye axis. The myopia of

and

deepened by 300 degrees, and the eyes increased by 1mm. Therefore, the deeper the degree, generally speaking, the longer the eyes, the more prominent the eyeballs look. This is not caused by wearing glasses.
