What are the health care measures for children’s vision development?

Nowadays, many people pay great attention to their children's eyesight. Because when their children like a certain profession, more and more professions now have vision standards. Therefore, parents should pay more attention to the health care measures for children's vision development, always observe their children's vision development, and let them take good care of their eyes. This is also good for them to find jobs when they grow up. So what are the health care measures for children's vision development?

Don't use your eyes for a long time

●Don’t overuse your eyes: At this time, the child’s eyes are still in an imperfect and unstable stage. Using the eyes for a long time and at close range will lead to decreased vision and the occurrence of myopia. Therefore, special attention should be paid to limiting children’s close-up work time, which generally should not exceed 30 minutes each time. You can often take your children to look into the distance and guide them to try to identify a target in the distance. This will help relax the eye muscles and prevent the occurrence of myopia.

●Monitor the development of vision: At this time, you should start monitoring your child's vision, especially checking the vision of both eyes separately, in order to detect abnormal vision in one eye. Because the eye with poor vision often loses the opportunity to be used and develops into amblyopia, which can be caused by refractive errors (hyperopia, myopia, astigmatism), strabismus, etc., the earlier the treatment, the better the effect. Before the age of 6 is the best time for treatment. Therefore, it is best to have a vision test every 3 to 6 months. If conditions permit, you can also perform a mydriasis refraction test during this stage.

Noise damages vision

●Scientific research has found that noise not only seriously affects the auditory organs, but also "affects" the visual organs through the nervous system, weakening people's vision. Studies have shown that noise can reduce the sensitivity of the human eye to light brightness and reduce the stability of visual clarity. For example, when the noise is 70 decibels, it takes 20 minutes for visual clarity to return to a stable state, while when the noise is 85 decibels, it takes at least more than an hour. Furthermore, noise can cause abnormalities in color vision and color visual field; in addition, noise can cause the eyes to fail to respond to the symmetry and balance of moving objects.

● Lack of nutrients can also cause eye diseases

1. Vitamins

Vitamin A plays a very important role in the metabolism of the eyes. It helps maintain the normal structure and physiological function of epithelial cells. Vitamin A deficiency is an important factor causing dry eye syndrome. It can also cause conjunctival pigmentation, resulting in chronic conjunctivitis, keratitis, sty, etc. In addition, vitamin A deficiency can also lead to retinal rhodopsin deficiency, resulting in a decreased ability of the eyes to adapt to darkness.

Vitamin B1 deficiency can cause blurred vision, dry eyes, etc. in the eyes, and in severe cases it can cause optic neuritis.

Vitamin B2 deficiency can manifest itself in the eyes as decreased vision, fear of light, and burning or foreign body sensation in the eyes.

Vitamin C deficiency can increase the permeability of blood vessel walls, causing bleeding tendency. Vitamin C deficiency can cause bleeding in the blood vessels and tissues of the eyes, and may also cause optic neuritis and retinitis.

The above tells parents about the health care measures for their children's vision development. The issue of vision development is very important so it should attract the attention of parents. In daily life, parents should take good care of their children's eyes and remind them to pay attention to their eyesight when watching TV or doing homework. Knowing these health care measures, parents should start with their own children and let them pay more attention to these every day and protect their eyes well!
