    High myopia is divided into pathological myopia and physiological myopia, and general physiological myopia is not inherited. However, if it is pathological myopia, it may be passed on to the next generation. It can also be said that the higher the degree of myopia, the greater the probability of heredity, but there is no current research on the probability of the inheritance of high myopia, whether there is intergenerational inheritance or orthogenetic inheritance, so you can often see that parents, both parties are highly myopic, but the child is not myopia, or both parents are not myopia, and the child has high myopia.

    Studies have shown that myopia is hereditary, even if it is acquired.

    Myopia can generally be divided into pathological myopia and simple myopia, pathological myopia refers to myopia with high degree and other conditions, with genetic heterogeneity, the common is autosomal recessive inheritance. Simple myopia is related to both genetics and environment, and belongs to multifactorial inheritance.

    Research data show that the probability of myopia is high in the inheritance of high myopia, and the probability of myopia of parents above 400 degrees is 70% for the mother and 50% for the father.

    Now myopia is getting younger and younger, and many children start myopia at a very young age. This is partly due to genetic factors, but also partly due to inattention.

    Generally, children under the age of 18 are nearsighted, whether they are born or acquired, and they should take medication in time to control the deepening of their vision. It is recommended to take Leyan Vision Nutrients, twice a day, one pack each time, with warm water, generally insist on taking it for a period of time, and the child's myopia can be controlled or even improved.

    High myopia is hereditary, and the mechanism has not yet been fully understood, but it is certain that if one of the parents has it, the probability of myopia in children is still relatively large, and there is no obvious conclusive evidence to say that there is a generational voice.

    Nowadays, the inheritance of myopia covers almost all inheritance patterns, but most of the simple myopia is polygenic inheritance. That is to say, the environment plays a very important role in it, so simple myopia is also called "school myopia", which is mainly caused by environmental stress. Genetically related myopia is often high myopia, and there are some myopia with obvious complications and other complications, which are called genetically related myopia.

    So far, population genetics studies have found that as long as one of the parents is myopic, the probability of a child developing myopia is twice higher than that of both parents who are not myopic. If both parents are nearsighted, it is higher than in a family where both parents are not myopia, up to a number of times. Surveys have been conducted in this group, such as in primary schools, and the prevalence of myopia in children at the age of 7 is 7.0% if both parents are not nearsighted.

    However, as long as one party has myopia, it is as high as 26.0%.

    There is a certain genetic predisposition to high myopia, and if parents are highly myopic, their children have more chances of suffering from myopia than ordinary people. But it is not absolute, in real life, there are many examples of parents with high myopia and children who are not myopia. The key is for parents to let their children develop hygienic eye habits from an early age, which can effectively prevent myopia.

    In fact, there is no clear identification of the hereditary nature of myopia, the cause of myopia is mainly due to myopia caused by poor eye hygiene habits, so the baby should be given a regular eye examination after birth, and when the child is found to have poor eyesight, it will be given in time. At present, according to the cause of the development of myopia in children, the pure physical multi-dimensional visual function training method is very effective. You can refer to the following** How much is the baby's vision normal.

    I don't know when it started, but people around me said that if both parents have myopia above 600 degrees, the next generation will be born with myopia. In our daily lives, we do see many children wearing thick glasses at a very young age. For this reason, many parents of myopia are very alert and have been searching online or consulting a doctor.

    So, is this news really reliable?

    In fact, parents with myopia of 600 degrees or more will not pass it on to their children. Parents who carry the myopia gene will pass it on to their children. It's the genes that are inherited, not the myopia itself.

    Therefore, parents with high myopia do not need to panic or worry too much about the genetic problem of myopia. There are two types of myopia: isolated myopia and high myopia.

    Simple myopia refers to common myopia below 600 degrees. Currently, there is no clear evidence that this myopia is hereditary, so you can rest assured. Is high myopia certainly hereditary?

    High myopia can be divided into pathological myopia and physiological myopia. In general, pathological high myopia has a genetic factor and is hereditary, while physiological high myopia does not. Therefore, as long as myopia reaches 600 degrees or more, it will not necessarily be passed on to the next generation.

    If you want to see exact data, then according to the results of the Demographic Genetic Survey, if both couples are highly myopia, their children usually get sick. One is highly myopic and the other is normal, and their children have a 10%-15% incidence。One is highly myopic and the other is a gene vector with a normal phenotype.

    The incidence of high myopia in children is 50%. If both partners are carriers of the gene for myopia, but have normal vision, the incidence of high myopia in children is 25%.

    Although high myopia may be inherited to the baby, there is no need to panic. Expectant mothers can try to reduce the effect of genetics on their babies in various ways: First, the rubella vaccine should be given in advance.

    Infection with rubella virus in the first trimester of pregnancy can directly affect the development of the baby's eyes and cause congenital cataracts. Second, get plenty of sun. Proper outdoor sun exercise is conducive to the absorption of calcium, which is very conducive to the development of fetal optic cells and cornea, which is called light wave prenatal education.

    Third, pay attention to the intake of adequate vitamins. Vitamin A, vitamin B1, vitamin B2 and vitamin C can all play a good role in eye development, improving the eye nervous system, and preventing cataracts.

    Experts said that from the analysis of the results of eye diseases, the rate of myopia in family members with a family history of myopia is higher than that of those without a family history of myopia, and the closer the kinship, the higher the prevalence rate. The higher the degree of myopia of parents, the higher the prevalence of children, and children with myopia genes have significantly worse resistance to adverse eye environment, and the risk of inducing myopia is higher. These results indicate that the onset of myopia is related to heredity.

    Moreover, the survey shows that if both parents are highly myopic, the children born are basically myopic. If one parent is highly myopic and the other is a carrier, 50% of the children born are myopic and 50% are carriers. If one parent is highly myopic and the other parent is a healthy person with normal genes, the child is not at risk of developing high myopia.

    First of all, it is necessary to take your child to have his vision checked regularly. Even parents who are sighted should take their children to have their eyes checked regularly. Regular testing can monitor your child's vision changes and detect early vision problems in your child.

    Now there are ophthalmic testing products (such as: pupil vision, home refractor, etc.) can be used to test vision at home, which is very convenient, and parents must not be troublesome and ignore their children's vision testing.

    Secondly, cultivate children's good eye habits, basically myopia is caused by bad eye habits. For example, using your eyes for a long time, sitting incorrectly, reading a book or playing with electronic products in a poorly lit position. Parents should pay special attention to this issue.

    Third, regular outdoor exercise. Give your child more opportunities to get in touch with nature and do more outdoor activities on green grass. Green light is short-wavelength light, and short-wavelength light has a short focal length, which is conducive to the prevention and control of myopia.

    Outdoor exercise can also help children broaden their horizons, so that the ciliary muscles can be fully relaxed, reducing the chance of children suffering from myopia.

    It will be inherited. But it should be explained on a case-by-case basis

    If both parents are highly myopic, the chance of myopia in the next generation is higher;

    If one parent is highly myopic and the other is a carrier of the gene, the chance of passing it on to the offspring is also high.

    If both parents are carriers of disease-causing genes, although they are not myopic, their disease-causing genes will be passed on to their children, and children with 2 myopia genes will have a higher chance of becoming myopic.

    In the case of myopia, it is generally a state caused by insufficient attention to eye hygiene and lack of protection of the eyes, so myopia will not be inherited from offspring.

    However, if you want to protect your eyesight more effectively, you must pay attention to learning and communicating with professionals, and it will be better to master more skills and methods of intellectual protection.

    1. Respond in a timely manner when talking.

    First of all, we must know how to respond, if others are very interested in saying a lot of things, and you don't have any expression, it will make people feel very embarrassed or uninteresting, so that the light words can only end hastily, and it will not help your language communication, so you should respond to others in a timely manner when talking to others.

    2. Communicate attitude and respect each other.

    The attitude when communicating is also very important, you should communicate modestly and friendly with the other party when communicating, and respect each other when talking, keep the body leaning forward during the conversation, not leaning back, and you can't lean your whole body on the chair, so that the whole person will look lazy.

    3. Know how to listen when talking.

    Listening is also a point to pay attention to in communication, when talking to others, we must take into account the feelings of others, but also listen to what the other party expresses, so that we can better communicate in language, otherwise it is like "chicken and duck talking", so that communication can not achieve the effect at all, and it is easy to misunderstand.

    4. Don't always be self-centered.

    When talking, we should also pay attention to an important point, don't always think that what you say and do is very important, always take yourself as the center, and other people's is not important, this situation is to be eliminated, which can easily cause others to be disgusted, and will also leave a bad impression on others.

    The mild power of myopia is generally not hereditary. If there is a genetic tendency after reaching a high degree of myopia, mainly because the myopia has a power of more than six, the eye axis can be inherited to the next generation, but the myopia caused by heredity is not born, but it is more likely to appear myopia in the process of daily learning and life, so patients with high myopia in one parent need children to develop good eye habits from an early age, and it is recommended to avoid watching TV or mobile phones as much as possible within 2 years old. After the age of 2, you should not watch TV for more than half an hour a day, and you can go to the hospital at the age of 3 to have your vision checked, and if you have vision loss, you need to be diagnosed by optometry.

    Depending on the results of the examination, myopia requires glasses.
