What should I do if a 17 year old man has more than 500 degrees of myopia

Vision is usually corrected by laser myopia surgery or glasses. At present, there is no effective technical equipment or drug for true myopia. Generally, it is claimed that you can be **myopia**pseudomyopia.

Pseudomyopia is caused by spasm of the ciliary muscle, and you can go to an eye clinic to relax the ciliary muscle with cycloplegic agents and restore vision.

First, understand what type of myopia you have. Myopia is divided into true myopia and pseudomyopia.

In the case of pseudomyopia, vision can be restored to a certain extent by taking proper rest and correct eye exercises, avoiding overuse of the eyes.

In the case of true myopia, proper rest and correct eye exercises can relieve eye fatigue and prevent myopia from progressing, but not restore vision. True myopia can be corrected with ultra-fast all-laser surgery, but not everyone can have laser surgery. The patient needs to be at least 18 years old, have no diseases and inflammation in the eye, and have sufficient corneal thickness, etc.

Before the operation, the regular eye hospital will give the patient a very detailed examination to ensure the effectiveness of the surgery and the safety of the patient.

If you don't want to have surgery, you can consider wearing orthokeratology lenses, which not only correct your vision, but also control the progression of myopia very well. Moreover, orthokeratology lenses are very convenient, you only need to wear them when you rest at night, and you can see clearly without glasses during work and study during the day.

Most optometry in optical stores is a simple computer refraction, which can detect the prescription, but the refraction is not accurate and comprehensive, and it is not sure whether it is true myopia. At the same time, wearing glasses with inaccurate prescription can harm the eyes and deepen myopia.

It is recommended that you go to the hospital for dilated refraction (the use of cycloplegic agents to refraction the patient while at rest) to determine whether it is true myopia or pseudomyopia, and then determine the plan to restore vision.

Hello! Some drugs and devices that claim to be able to ** myopia should be carefully selected, and no method can completely restore myopia.

The function of orthokeratology lenses is to reversibly correct myopia, wear them when you sleep at night, and you can have good naked eye vision without wearing glasses during the day.

There are many surgical methods for myopia, which are generally divided into two categories according to different surgical methods; The first type is laser surgery**, also known as corneal refractive surgery, including excimer laser surgery and femtosecond laser surgery; The second type is intraocular refractive surgery, including phakic intraocular lens implantation and lens exchange, and different surgical methods are suitable for different people and different degrees of myopia.

500 degrees is already moderate myopia, and it is difficult to reduce the degree, it is recommended to wear a pair of progressive multifocal glasses, which can alleviate the deepening of the degree, and individuals should also control eye fatigue.

Go to the hospital and see if your condition is getting better.

Generally, the body is in the stage of growth and development, and the power of the eyes is also growing, and the growth rate of myopia is between 50 degrees and 1 grandson every year. Around the age of 18, the degree of myopia tends to be stable. However, this growth rate is also relative, not absolute or muling, so it is necessary to pay attention to avoid the degree growing too fast.

You're 600 degrees now, and 18 years old is about 800 degrees.
