    Many people think that wearing glasses after myopia will deepen the prescription, so after a child has myopia symptoms, many parents would rather let it be myopic than wear glasses and glasses. Actually, this is not right. Because the eye is short-sighted, when it is not clear, it will force the eye to increase adjustment, the intraocular pressure rises, and the extraocular muscles contract, which can lead to the elongation of the eye axis and the deepening of myopia in the long run.

    According to expert research, pseudomyopia is not matched in principle, true myopia requires glasses, and the power of mixed glasses cannot exceed the power of true myopia. Myopia below 100 degrees can be temporarily without glasses; If you don't wear it, your eyes will get closer and closer to the target when you write or read, and it is easy to deepen myopia. Moderate to high myopia should be worn often.

    Children under the age of 10 who have a significant difference in the degree of myopia or farsightedness in both eyes should also wear glasses. Some experts also propose that in order to reduce the load on the ciliary muscles when teenagers look at near objects, they can use myopia glasses when they see far and do not wear glasses when they see near objects.

    Wearing the glasses correctly will not get deeper and deeper.

    The development of myopia is not directly related to the wearing of glasses. Patients with myopia wear appropriate glasses and pay attention to eye hygiene, and the degree of myopia will stabilize at a certain level. However, if you think that everything will be fine with glasses, and you do not pay attention to eye hygiene and continue to keep your eyes in a state of fatigue for a long time, it will lead to vision loss and myopia deepening.

    In addition, wearing inappropriate glasses, such as no refraction or inaccurate refraction, and excessive prescription, will increase the burden on the eyes, reduce vision, and deepen the prescription. Some people with high myopia (more than 600 degrees), although they insist on wearing glasses, the degree will still deepen, accompanied by fundus changes, which is medically called pathological myopia.

    This myopia progression is related to the degree of myopia and the family, and has nothing to do with wearing glasses.

    How to wear glasses for teenagers is reasonable.

    If the teenager is not fitted with glasses, it will not only damage the eyesight, but also may cause various conditions, such as dizziness, headache, gastrointestinal discomfort and other conditions. Ophthalmologists from the Youth Vision Base of the Harbin Red Cross Society said that after wearing the right glasses for teenagers, only by wearing them reasonably can they really protect and improve their vision.

    According to reports, preschool children suffer from myopia, check the refraction above moderate, some cases may also be accompanied by different degrees of exotropia, this kind of myopia after glasses, must often wear glasses, and need to be rechecked once every six months. Mild myopia in adolescents can be seen.

    Wear glasses when you are far away and remove them when you look close; Moderate to high myopia, regardless of whether you see far or near, you must wear glasses for a long time. In fact, the deepening of myopia mainly depends on eye hygiene, and has nothing to do with wearing glasses. Patients with astigmatisma, whether simple or mixed, have a prescription or a prescription, as long as they have conscious symptoms, they must often wear glasses.
