myopia? Is the distant images are not clear. Usually in reading, writing, close work, the myopia of the balance between regulation and vergence abnormalities, may induce strabismus, affect the appearance and cause discomfort. High myopia not only hereditary, and retinal detachment, vitreous liquefaction, amblyopia and other complication rates compared with emmetropia were significantly higher. Glasses, although the correction of myopia vision, but still give life, the work of the inconvenience, but also indirectly affect the physical and mental health of young people.

in accordance with the incidence of nature, can be short-sighted divided into congenital myopia (also known as pathological myopia) and of acquired myopia (ie, regulatory myopia). By inherited congenital myopia, often since childhood onset, a higher degree of intervention means poor. Of acquired myopia, caused by poor study habits and living environment. So, prevention of myopia, what can I do?

attention to eye health

read, write when you sit up straight and not excessive forward head, the distance and the book should be maintained at more than 30 cm. The lighting should be moderate when reading is too strong, too dark are detrimental to the eyes. Can be summarized as “three” “four” “five”.

the “Three Ones”: reading, writing, eyes with the desktop to maintain the distance of one foot; the body and the desk to keep the punch distance; handshake writing hand and the tip to keep an inch (3.3 cm ) distance.
