Progressive myopia in children: what parents can do to prevent?
Ortho K, in combination with prescription drugs significantly improves myopia control in children while avoiding the need for wearing glasses or undergoing surgery
Myopia in children has been progressing rapidly in recent years. Especially during the COVID-19 pandemic, more screen time and less outdoor time has actually harmed children’s vision and put them at higher risk of developing myopia. This can lead to serious eye problems in the future, even including potentially blinding diseases. Additionally, myopia progression is faster in children; if not monitored and corrected in time, it will cause eye damage and have serious consequences for the future.
In order to take control of your child's myopia, Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê¿ª½±Íø advises parents to assure:
- Wear the right glasses.
- Clean eyes properly with a clean, warm towel first, then massage around the eyes to relax and relieve tired eyes before going to sleep.
- Watch TV or computer screen with correct posture, adjust screen brightness to low, and always ensure plenty of ambient room light, as suitable for reading.
- Apply the 20-20-20 rule. Every 20 minutes, take a 20-second break and focus your eyes on something at least 20 feet away that will help refocus and rest the eyes
- Assure adequate nutrition to support your eyes, supplemented with nutrients such as vitamin A, Zinc, Vitamin B, Beta carotene, and chromium contained in vegetables, fruits, seafood, meat, fish, and nuts.
