This is how teenagers' myopia needs to be treated

With the progress of society and the popularization of electronic products such as mobile phones and computers, myopia is becoming more and more common in daily life, especially among young people, so it is particularly important to find scientific and effective treatment methods. Eye function training, wearing frame glasses, drug therapy, surgical correction, etc. are all treatment methods. People also need to use their eyes reasonably during the treatment process and keep their eyes clean.

1. How should teenagers treat myopia?

1. Eye function training

Visual training therapies such as the farsightedness method, fog vision method, vision training method, ciliary muscle training method, accommodation-convergence training method, biofeedback training method and flash eye muscle training method are mostly based on the weakened accommodation power of myopic eyes, and various measures are taken to increase the strength of the ciliary muscles and expand the accommodation reserve to improve the vision of myopic eyes or reduce their refractive power.

2. Frame glasses

Correct eye examination and glasses fitting have long been the main method for correcting myopic refractive errors, and resin lenses are now quite popular. According to the "accommodation theory" of myopia, reducing accommodation when reading at close range may prevent the development of myopia. Scholars from various countries are conducting research on the use of progressive multifocal lenses to prevent or delay the development of myopia in children.

3. Medication

Although the mechanism of myopic changes in the eye is still unclear, there is evidence that a variety of drugs can prevent the progression of myopia, including M receptor antagonists such as atropine and pirenzepine. It is relatively certain that only long-term use of atropine can effectively delay the progression of myopia, but its side effects limit its clinical promotion.

4. Surgical correction

Excimer laser corneal refractive surgery is one of the fastest-growing medical high-tech technologies in recent years, and it is becoming more and more perfect. Some patients who have undergone the surgery have indeed benefited from it by satisfying their special needs. Surgery can quickly improve distance vision, but it cannot reduce the complications of myopia. Surgery on adolescent students who are in the process of growth and development must be performed with caution and the indications should be strictly controlled.

2. Postoperative care for myopia surgery should be meticulous and careful

1. Avoid operating the computer continuously for a long time. Take a break in between. Usually, you should take a 5-10 minute break after operating it for 1 hour. When resting, you can look into the distance or do eye exercises. Avoid staring and pay attention to blinking frequently and completely. Frequent blinking can reduce the time the eyeballs are exposed to the air and prevent tears from evaporating.

2. Eat more fruits, especially citrus fruits, and also eat more green vegetables, grains, fish and eggs. Drinking plenty of water can also help relieve dry eyes. Maintain good living habits, get enough sleep, and don't stay up late. Adjust the distance and position of the fluorescent screen. The recommended distance is 50-70 cm, and the screen should be slightly below eye level by 10-20 cm, with a downward viewing angle of 15-20 degrees. Because the angle and distance can reduce the need for refraction and reduce the chance of eye fatigue.

3. Walnut and sesame honey prevents and treats myopia

Recipe ingredients: 1500 grams of walnuts, 500 grams of black sesame seeds, 1 cup of milk or soy milk, 1 spoon of honey.

Preparation method:

1. Shell and peel the walnuts, put them in an iron pan, and fry them over low heat. When they turn slightly yellow, take them out and let them cool. Use a pestle and scoop to mash them into a paste.

2. Remove the sand from the black sesame seeds, put them in a rice basket, rinse them with water, take them out, put them in an iron pan, fry them over low heat, take them out and grind them into fine powder after they are dry.

3. Pour 1 spoon each of walnut paste and black sesame powder into boiled milk or soy milk, add 1 spoon of honey, mix well and drink.
