Measures to prevent myopia
Myopia is a common ophthalmic problem, especially in modern people. Zhongshan ophthalmologists help prevent myopia through the following measures:
First of all, good eye habits are the basis for preventing myopia. The doctor suggested that everyone should take a proper rest after using the eyes for a long time at close range, leave the screen or books at regular intervals, look far, and let the eyes relax. In addition, correct eye posture is also very important. You should maintain correct sitting posture and eye distance to avoid excessive eye use. In addition, frequent outdoor activities, especially looking at the natural scenery, are also very helpful to the protection of eyesight.
Secondly, keeping good ambient light is also an important factor in preventing myopia. Doctors recommend that you keep appropriate light brightness in the learning and working environment, and avoid too dark or too bright environment. In addition, we should also avoid relying too much on electronic products, such as mobile phones, computers, etc. The screen light of these devices may cause some damage to the eyes. When using these devices, you should adapt to the ambient light, adjust the screen brightness and contrast, and reduce eye irritation.
Finally, the correct use of glasses and contact lenses can also help prevent myopia. If you are nearsighted, you should wear glasses or contact lenses of the correct degree in time to ensure normal vision. At the same time, the degree should be checked regularly, and glasses or contact lenses should be updated in time as the vision changes. Do not wear other people's glasses at will to avoid discomfort and side effects. In addition, attention should also be paid to the correct time of wearing glasses or contact lenses to avoid continuous wearing for a long time.
Methods of treating myopia
For people who have suffered from myopia, Zhongshan ophthalmologists provide a variety of treatment methods:
First, Zhongshan ophthalmologists select appropriate corrective measures for patients by evaluating their vision and myopia. The commonly used correction methods include glasses, contact lenses and corneal shaping glasses. Glasses are the most common and convenient correction method, which is suitable for patients of all ages. Contact lenses are a relatively concealed correction method, suitable for people who need frequent sports or have high aesthetic requirements. Corneal shaping lens is a special contact lens, which can correct myopia by changing the shape of the cornea, and is suitable for patients with high myopia.
Secondly, Zhongshan ophthalmologists will also recommend the use of drugs to treat myopia according to the specific conditions of patients. At present, there are drugs for myopia prevention, control and treatment, such as hormone eye drops, antioxidants, etc. These drugs can slow down the development of myopia and improve vision. However, drug treatment needs to understand the patient's physical condition and medication guidance, so it must be carried out under the guidance of doctors.
Finally, for myopia patients with higher degrees, Zhongshan ophthalmologists also provide surgical correction options. Refractive surgery can correct myopia by changing the shape of the cornea and changing the focus of the eye on light. Common surgical methods include LASIK and ICL. For these operations, doctors need to comprehensively evaluate the patients' eye conditions and physical conditions, and determine the appropriate surgical methods.
summary
Zhongshan ophthalmologists prevent and treat myopia through various means. The measures to prevent myopia include good eye habits, maintaining good ambient light and using glasses correctly. For patients who have suffered from myopia, doctors provide glasses, contact lenses, corneal plastic lenses, medication, surgery and other methods of correction. Through the efforts of Zhongshan ophthalmologists and the cooperation of patients, myopia can be effectively prevented and treated.
