Eighty percent of high myopia may have complications! How can we protect our eyes?

Usually try to minimize the time and frequency of using electronic products, not too close when using, and pay attention to adjusting the brightness when using at night.

Don't overuse your eyes at ordinary times, buy some eye drops to apply when you feel tired and dry, you can alleviate it, and get up every morning to do eye exercises, which can protect our eyes from myopia.

If you are highly myopia, you must be careful not to fatigue your eyes. And to reduce the time you spend looking at your phone, if you want to look at your phone, your hand should be located below the field of view, and you should do eye exercises frequently.

Types of complications of high myopia:

1. Posterior scleral staphyloma.

The incidence of posterior scleral staphyloma is about about, and the higher the degree of myopia, the higher the probability of posterior scleral staphyloma, which is clinically manifested as posterior dilation of the posterior pole of the eyeball, degeneration and atrophy of the optic nerve and retina around the macula, and decreased corrected visual acuity.

2. Retinal atrophy, degeneration, hemorrhage and tears.

Due to factors such as elongated eye axis and posterior scleral staphyloma, patients with high myopia are prone to retinal atrophy, degeneration, and tears, causing hemorrhage and retinal detachment, and eventually blindness.

3. Subretinal neovascularization.

The clinical manifestation is subretinal neovascularization in the posterior pole, causing hemorrhage and affecting vision.

4. Retinal detachment.

This is a relatively common complication and is commonly known as "mesh detachment". Due to the elongation of the eye axis, the posterior half of the eyeball becomes thinner, the retina and vein membranes atrophy and degeneration, and tears appear, causing hemorrhage and retinal detachment of various areas, resulting in vision loss. The clinical manifestations are sudden blurred vision, deformation, and dark shadows, which can lead to blindness in severe cases.

5. Glaucoma.

High myopia is the second leading cause of blinding eye disease in the world, which is complicated by high intraocular pressure, progressive vision loss, and visual field narrowing. This is due to the abnormal structure of the filter curtain at the corner of the eye of the myopic eye, so the aqueous humor in the eye has a greater resistance to outflow, which is easy to cause an increase in intraocular pressure and gradually lose vision. Patients with high myopia have several times higher rates of open-angle glaucoma than normal people.

6. Cataract.

Abnormal intraocular nutrient metabolism in high myopia changes the capsule permeability of the lens, lens dystrophy and metabolic disorders gradually cause turbidity, and vision gradually decreases and cataract occurs.

7. Floaters.

Floaters are the cloudiness of the vitreous humor, and the symptoms are the sensation of black shadows fluttering in front of your eyes, like mosquitoes flying in front of your eyes, especially when looking at white or bright backgrounds. It is mainly caused by vitreous degeneration and liquefaction.

Be sure to pay attention to eye problems, then be sure to wear glasses, if the situation is serious, go for surgery, don't play with your mobile phone after turning off the lights, and then often look into the distance, don't rub your eyes hard, and eat more foods with more vitamin A content; There is a possibility of high blood pressure, vision deterioration, blindness, itchy eyes, double vision, cataracts and glaucoma.

Be sure to pay attention to the protection of the eyes, pay attention to rest, do not use electronic products for a long time, and be sure to pay attention to whether there is a macula in the fundus, whether the lens is cloudy, and whether there is a problem with the retina.

Strengthen the examination and protect the eyesRetinal detachment is the most common eye disease of high myopia, and it is also a very dangerous disease, which is related to many genetic factors. Therefore, children whose parents have high myopia need to pay more attention to strengthening examinations, and high-risk groups should be checked once every three months. Avoid strenuous activities such as roller coasters, bungee jumping, football, basketball, etc., as much as possible, and protect your eyes.

We look at TV and mobile phones, don't turn the lights up too brightly, turn them down. Don't let your eyes strain too much, and pay attention to rest.

1. Good eye habits should start from a young age, for example, when studying, the posture should be correct, not too close to the book, and do not lie on the stomach and lie down to read, reduce the time to play electronic products, do not study in the strong light, take a proper break every hour of reading, look into the distance, and relieve the fatigue of the eyes.

2. Outdoor activities allow children to go outdoors after writing homework and studying, which can train children to raise flowers and grass, so that children can have more contact with green plants, which has a good effect on children's vision protection. At the same time, encourage children to look into the distance when they are fine, exercise the contractility of eye muscles, and relieve visual fatigue.

3. Regular eye examination: Check the vision regularly, and correct it in time when it is found that there is a decrease in vision to avoid the formation of true myopia.

First of all, you should enhance your outdoor sports, enhance your physique, keep massaging your eyes every day, and at the same time don't read books and play with your mobile phone in places with bad light.

Like other organs of the body, the eyes also need to rest, for the health of the eyes, we should use our eyes moderately, do not stare at mobile phones, computers for a long time.

Do more eye exercises, which can help with eye fatigue, and try not to look at your phone in a dark place.

Don't let the eye axis continue to grow, should be checked regularly, once the problem is found, it should be dealt with in time, can not be dragged, and can not be afraid of other consequences and refuse to go to the hospital, to sum up is to correct in time and recheck in time.

First of all, pay attention to the eye rest and do not overuse your eyes. Secondly, pay attention to keeping your eyes clean. Finally, eat more vitamin-rich foods such as grapes.

The common complications of high myopia are fundus lesions, mesh detachment, glaucoma and other problems, so people with high myopia need to go to the hospital regularly for fundus-related examinations to find problems and prevent and control them in time.

Complications of myopia are common:

1. When the eyeball of myopia is enlarged, the vitreous cannot fill all the space in the eye, liquefaction occurs, and the mobility increases, causing dark shadows in front of the eyes and vitreous lesions;

2. High myopia is easy to cause macular tears, macular hemorrhage, and macular degeneration;

3. It can cause cataracts;

4. High myopia is easy to cause open-angle glaucoma;

5. Cause retinal detachment, amblyopia, strabismus.

There is no need to worry about the after-effects of surgery.

First, refractive surgery is a corneal surface surgery, which will not directly lead to lesions and sequelae of other eye tissues.

Second, a detailed preoperative examination will be done before the operation to ensure that the eye meets the surgical requirements, and the doctor will operate on the patient;

Third, as long as the doctor's instructions are strictly implemented throughout the operation, there will be no rumors on the Internet about myopia surgery causing cataracts, retinal detachment, blindness, eye inflammation and infection, etc.;

Fourth, if refractive surgery does lead to serious complications and sequelae, will the state allow the procedure to develop so quickly?

Clause. 5. The laser used in the surgery is to scan the cornea accurately without harming the internal tissues of the eyeball. Excimer lasers are cold lasers that precisely ablate the portion of the cornea that is expected to be removed without damaging the surrounding tissues and other tissues. The wavelength of the excimer laser is very short and only 193nm, so it cannot penetrate the eye at all, so there is no harm to the internal tissues of the eye***.

There is also no reason for the recurrence of sequelae after a few years.

With the popularity of electronics, myopia is now common.

First of all, high myopia, no need to panic.

We only need to do a good job of personal maintenance and basic eye physical examination in our daily life, and there is basically no problem.1. It is recommended to re-examine the fundus every six months or a year.

2. More outdoor activities, less sweets, and more fresh fruits and vegetables.

3. Don't play strenuous sports: deep diving, roller coasters, skydiving, etc.

4. Calm your mind.

(1) Vitreous lesions: Due to the prolongation of the eye axis, the vitreous cavity increases, which promotes the progressive degeneration of the vitreous, resulting in liquefaction, turbidity and posterior detachment.

2) Cataract Due to abnormalities such as intraocular blood circulation disorders and tissue degeneration, the lens can also be affected, which is mainly manifested as lens opacity.

3) Glaucoma with open-angle glaucoma is six to eight times more common than normal eyes, and the proportion of normal intraocular pressure glaucoma and suspected glaucoma is also significantly higher than that of other populations.

4) Macular degeneration: Macular hemorrhage, macular degeneration, and macular hole are common.

5) Retinal detachment is a common complication of high myopia, occurring eight or ten times more often than other populations. In patients with primary or rhegmatogenous retinal detachment, myopia can account for more than 70% of patients.

6) Posterior scleral spaphylomn Degenerative myopia due to the excessive extension of the eyeball from the equatorial part, the posterior pole sclera is obviously thinned, and localized dilation occurs, and under the action of intraocular pressure, the sclera bulges, and the formation of posterior scleral staphyloma of different sizes. Its occurrence is obviously related to the level of diopter and the length of the eye.

7) Amblyopia. 8) Strabismus is often accompanied by occult exotropia or overt exotropia due to abnormal accommodative and aggregate functions and dysregulation of interrelationships.

High myopia refers to myopia above 600 degrees, and common complications are:

1. Strabismus and amblyopia;

2. Vitreous changes, myopia due to the extension of the eye axis, the vitreous cavity is expanded, and the vitreous can be liquefied, turbid, and detached later, and there is a black shadow floating or mosquito-like black shadow fluttering in front of the eyes, commonly known as it"Floaters"；

3. Retinal changes, due to the extension of the eye axis, the degeneration of the peripheral retina, and the traction of vitreous opacity, etc., can cause retinal tears, and then retinal detachment occurs;

4. Retroscleral staphyloma;

5. Macular degeneration, such as macular degeneration and macular hemorrhage;

6. Glaucoma and cataract;

7. High myopia may be inherited to the next generation.

Generally, more than 600 degrees is called high myopia, the eye axis of high myopia is very long, and the actual power of the eye axis increases by 250 300 degrees for every 1mm increase, and the eye axis of high myopia is generally above 27mm, so the retina will become relatively fat when the eye axis becomes longer, and it is easy to have retinal degeneration, which is the thinning of the retina, in this case, it is easy to lead to retinal detachment, and it is also easy to cause complications such as macular hemorrhage and vitreous opacity. In short, there are many complications and serious harm to high myopia, so we must pay attention to protecting our eyes.
