High myopia

High myopia is a vision challenge faced by many people, especially in modern society, where the popularity of electronic devices has led to more and more people joining the "myopia army". High myopia usually refers to myopia of more than 600 degrees. This is not just a problem of wearing glasses, but may also involve some potential eye health risks. For people with high myopia, it is particularly important to pay attention to eye health.

High myopia is not just a problem of blurred vision, it may also be accompanied by an increased risk of other eye diseases, such as retinal detachment, glaucoma and cataracts. Imagine that the eye is like an over-inflated balloon. As the degree of myopia increases, the eyeball becomes longer and thinner, which can easily lead to retinal problems. In order to protect your eyes, regular eye examinations are essential, which can help detect potential problems in time and prevent them before they occur.

In daily life, the way to protect your eyes is actually very simple. Reduce long-term close-up use of the eyes, especially when using mobile phones, computers and other electronic devices. You should look up and look into the distance for 20 seconds every 20 minutes. This is called the "20-20-20" rule. Maintain a good eye posture and sufficient light environment, which can reduce eye fatigue. A balanced diet is also conducive to eye health. Foods rich in vitamins A, C and E, such as carrots, spinach and nuts, are good for the eyes.

If you are already a high myopic patient, in addition to daily eye care, you can also consider some medical correction methods. For example, laser surgery is a common method of correcting myopia, but it is not suitable for everyone. The specific situation needs to be discussed with a professional doctor. Orthokeratology is also a non-surgical correction method. By wearing special contact lenses at night, normal vision can be temporarily restored during the day.

High myopia is not terrible. The key lies in how we manage and protect our eyes. Through good eye habits, regular check-ups and appropriate medical means, the risks of high myopia can be effectively reduced. I hope that every friend with high myopia can have a clear and bright vision.
