In 2018, the overall myopia rate of children and adolescents in China was as high as 536%, which has attracted widespread attention from the whole society. **The Ministry of Education and other eight departments jointly issued the "Implementation Plan for the Comprehensive Prevention and Control of Myopia in Children and Adolescents" to promote the myopia problem in children and adolescents.
Over the past five years, from the classroom to the family, the scientific prevention and control project has been gradually implemented. Leaving the school space, it will be a huge challenge for parents to protect their children's and adolescents' vision at home. During the winter vacation of 2024, the National Comprehensive Prevention and Control of Myopia in Children and Adolescents Publicity Group revised and formed 20 questions and answers on the prevention and control of myopia in multiple scenarios during the winter vacation of 2024 on the basis of the previous work, and continued to promote the prevention and control of vision in children and adolescents.
Most of the current myopia prevention and control programs rely on active adjustment of activities, which is quite challenging for children and adolescents. In addition to active behavior, there is an urgent need for objective innovative products to assist in the prevention and control of myopia
Imminent
As early as 2016, the "13th Five-Year Plan" National Eye Health Plan 2016-2020 proposed by the eight ministries and commissions has been highlighted in the screening and scientific correction of refractive errors in children and adolescents.
In patients with myopia,Individual differences are relatively large。For example, some children have pseudomyopia, which can be reversed through behavioral habits and **; The causes of true myopia vary, ranging from abnormal corneal curvature to changes in the axial length of the eye.
In the 2023 National Key Work Plan for the Comprehensive Prevention and Control of Myopia in Children and Adolescents, it is particularly pointed out that the axial length as an objective detection index has significant medical significance in assisting in judging the progress of myopia and suggesting related risks. Parents' awareness of myopia is relatively shallow, and most parents' attention to myopia still stays at naked eye vision. However, myopia in our country often leads to a lengthening of the eye axis, 933% of doctors advised parents to pay attention to the axial length, but only 44% of parents paid attention to the axial length.
Over the past 5 years,The awareness of myopia prevention and control has been popularized, and some prevention and control plans have emerged
For children and adolescents to learn and play in their daily lives, there are many protective glasses on the market. Myopia protective glasses are lenses with different powers attached to one lens, so that the power of seeing near and seeing far is different. According to the data of Shangpu Consulting Group, the size of China's protective glasses market will reach about 6.5 billion yuan in 2022, and the market is broad. The problem is that the ** of myopia protective lenses is much higher than that of lenses with a single power, and they are also not universal.
However, there is still a large part of the attention to myopia** and training. On June 2, 2023, on June 2, 2023, Hebei Province's centralized procurement of OK mirrors was announced. 5 orthokeratology lens (production or **) enterprises won the bid, involving 10 products in two categories: standard film and ring curved film, and the lowest price dropped to 1760 yuan.
There is no doubt that with the entry of OK mirror into medical insurance, it will become a new choice for parents. Although medical products are constantly iterating in the digital era, the update and iteration time of medical devices is longer than the public knows.
In addition, low-concentration atropine is also a drug to prevent myopia progression. The National Eye Centre of Singapore has done large clinical trials on atropine products, 001%Atropine has the best balance between myopia control effect and safety. At present, many atropine products have gone to the clinical link and are not far from being listed.
In the view of deep diving atom, it is best to prevent it as well as to keep children away from myopia"**If you want to realize the myopia problem of children and adolescents, you urgently need innovative products to help.
Digital technology makes up for the lack of off-campus protection
In the past few years, there are many projects for the prevention and control of myopia in children and adolescents that have been very matureThere is still a need for consumer products
Refractive development archives need to be continuous, durable, and accurate, which is highly dependent on the help of digital tools. Through digital tools, it is possible to ensure a uniform format for data collection, and establish a broad foundation from the grassroots level, so as to effectively promote the precise prevention and treatment of myopia.
With the help of digital tools, campus screening activities have been launched across the country. For example, Beijing has introduced the "Beijing Primary and Secondary School Students' Health Examination Management Measures", which arranges vision monitoring for students twice a year, and the relevant data needs to be entered into the Beijing primary and secondary school health information management system. In the actual landing process, in addition to the refractive detection in the condition of dilated pupils and non-dilated pupils, some areas have added the health detection of the eye axis and fundus retina.
Combined with the digital diopter file, the school has also carried out targeted eye health file adjustments, such as increasing outdoor exercise and strengthening eye health knowledge training.
During the school period, the vision health of children and adolescents can be paid attention to and protected, and during the time at home, it is often neglected。Many products are aimed at this market and have been targeted.
In the digital age, it seems that eye health can be better addressed through technology. Especially with the maturity of gene and artificial intelligence technology, the development of myopia has gradually become a reality. The research institutions represented by the Eye Hospital affiliated to Wenzhou Medical University have achieved phased results in the myopia project of children and adolescents. However, it is still necessary to wear other behavioral habits or special lenses.
In 2021, when digital ** was just emerging, myopia-related products were the focus of attention. Especially in the field of amblyopia. In the first quarter of 2022 alone, there were 3 amblyopia training software out of 6 Class II medical devices**. The number of indications involving children's amblyopia examination, **and insufficient fusion function** has accounted for half of the country.
The limitations of digital ** are relatively large, and myopia prevention and control requires products with higher universality. In particular, it can have two core key functions that can enter the home and meet some specific functions.
Starting with the light source seems to be a good solution to the problem of eye transitions at night. At present, there have been many eye-protecting desk lamps on the market, and the intelligent light-sensitive function can automatically sense the brightness and darkness of the ambient light, adjust the illumination, and maintain a comfortable learning environment for children at all times.
In the digital era, online classes have gradually become an important part of students' daily learning. When the ciliary muscle is in a state of tension for a long time, and the eyes of teenagers are not fully developed, long-term tension is easy to cause accommodative spasm and accommodative lag, and it is easy to have problems such as inaccurate eye focus.
Using the principle of optics to make short-range images become long-distance images, Shiguangji launched AR myopia prevention and control black technology products. As an AR anti-myopia black technology product, the remote image light screen P1 can simulate a 6-meter long distance and 150-inch giant screen high-definition imaging, changing the eye habits of teenagers when they are on the screen. From the light source products into the game, it is easier to enter thousands of households.
In the era of great health, the myopia prevention and control track has become the first track. In the process of nuggets, it needs to be supported by products that are universal, more cost-effective, and more reliable.
