During the winter vacation, the weather is cold, and going out for activities becomes "tormenting", and many children are accustomed to staying indoors and accidentally immersing themselves in playing with electronic products. At this time, it is particularly easy to develop myopia or worsen myopia. Therefore, it is necessary to protect your eyes during the winter vacation and actively prevent and control myopia.
This is the case for myopia prevention and control during the winter vacation!
Use your eyes wisely
Whether it's watching TV, computers and other electronic products, or paper books, it's all close to your eyes, and you need to control time and distance.
Doctors recommend that the cumulative amount of recreational video time should not exceed 1 hour per day, and that you should rest for 3 to 5 minutes every half hour.
The larger the electronic screen, the better, so that the actual distance is farther away, and it is less likely to cause eye discomfort and fatigue.
The distance between reading and writing is 33 cm, and an intermission is also required.
Protect yourself for outdoor activities
As long as you go out of the house and go outdoors, whether it is "sunny" or not, it can effectively promote the release of dopamine, thereby delaying the growth of the eye axis.
Therefore, it is necessary to ensure that the child has no less than 2 hours of outdoor activity every day and no less than 14 hours per week. At the same time, the weather is cold in winter, so pay attention to sheltering from the wind outdoors to avoid catching a cold.
Have your vision checked
Parents can take their children to the hospital for vision check-ups, or they can do a self-vision test with a standard logarithmic eye chart.
Note that when the child is found to have myopia-related symptoms such as crooked head vision, frequent squinting, and eye squeezing, let the child rest his eyes, exercise moderately, and bring him to the hospital in time if it is not relieved.
