Can a 2-year-old baby recover from myopia?

In many people's impressions, myopia is a problem for students or adults. In fact, a 2-year-old baby may also have myopia.

Can a 2-year-old baby recover from myopia?

It is recommended to carefully check the lenses and get a pair of suitable glasses for your child. Wear glasses when studying in class, but don't wear glasses when resting or playing. Because glasses have no therapeutic effect on the eyes. It just serves as a crutch. In your daily diet, you should eat more vegetables, fruits and dried fruits, and don't be picky about grains and animal livers. The most important thing is to use your eyes hygienically and scientifically. Pay attention to the distance of light when reading or studying. When looking at a close target, you should change the light after about 20 minutes, that is, look outside for two or three seconds. After 45 minutes, you should stand up and move around for 5 to 10 minutes. You should look into the distance for about 10 minutes every day, and take 15 minutes every day to do eye acupoint massage. The above are auxiliary and health-care therapies.

Symptoms of myopia in two-year-old babies

1. Squinting: When it is difficult to see distant targets clearly, children often squint to compensate, because when squinting, the eyelids can block part of the pupil, reduce diffuse light, and reduce the impact of astigmatism, thereby temporarily improving visual acuity.

2. Blinking: Frequent blinking can relieve myopia and increase visual clarity to a certain extent. Many people can see things more clearly when they cry.

3. Rubbing eyes: When you can’t see the target clearly, you often rub your eyes with your hands in an attempt to see better.

4. Tilting the head: It is common to tilt the head when watching TV. This is because when the head is tilted, the interference and influence of some diffuse light can be reduced. Some children even develop a habit of tilting the head.

5. Frown: Frown and try to use both eyes to improve your vision. But in fact, doing so will accelerate the development of myopia due to the pressure of the extraocular muscles on the eyeball.

6. Eye-pulling: When a few children cannot see distant objects clearly, they often use their hands to pull the skin at the outer corners of their eyes outwards, to achieve the same effect as tilting the head and squinting.
