June 6th is the national "eye day", this year the theme is "eye bath sunshine, prevention of myopia." On the 2 day, the Provincial Education Bureau, the Municipal Health Planning Commission and the Municipal Sports Bureau Co sponsored by the Provincial Health Planning Commission, the provincial education department and the Provincial Sports Bureau. The Shanghe County Education and Sports Bureau and the youth eyesight prevention center in Shandong Province jointly held the "eyesight" in the campus activities in Shanghe County, Zhang Fang Town, Rong de school.
according to the 2014 national student physical health survey, the 7~12 year old pupils, 13~15 year old junior high school students, 16~18 year old high school students and 19~22 year old students were 45.71%, 74.36%, 83.28% and 86.36%, respectively. "The situation in our province is not optimistic. At present, 20650 primary and secondary schools in our province, about 13 million primary and middle school students, pupils' myopia rate 40%, junior middle school students 70%, high school students 90%, are obviously higher than the national average." Bi Hongsheng, director of the Provincial Center for the prevention of poor eyesight, said.
a survey of 2000 children showed that the rate of myopia decreased by 23% in children who spent more than 40 minutes outdoors each day. Researchers believe that dopamine is the key to sunlight stimulation of dopamine production, while dopamine can prevent eye deformation and prevent myopia. Experts suggest that children should spend at least 3 hours a day in the open air, and the risk of becoming more short-sighted can be reduced to some extent. At the same time, ophthalmologists warn that preventing myopia should start early. After the birth of the baby, you should go to the hospital to make a visual examination and establish an eye diopter file, which will help to find poor vision in the early stage, so as to file management and formulate corresponding intervention measures. Generally speaking, 1 to 3 months of infants can do fundus examination, 6 months for infants and young children can do refraction examination, 3 to 5 years old children should regularly check vision, refraction, eye axis length, corneal curvature and fundus.
"to remove congenital causes, the environment of the day after tomorrow will have a great impact on children's eyesight." Liu Yufen, an ophthalmologist at the Ji'nan traditional Chinese medicine hospital, said. It is understood that since 2002, Liu Yufen began to study the treatment of ophthalmological diseases such as juvenile myopia and amblyopia. Many teenagers have been treated by traditional Chinese medicine, and their visual acuity has been effectively recovered. At night, she says, indoor lighting is brighter than in the past, and time is longer, with all kinds of learning pressure, which causes children's sleep not to be effectively guaranteed. These factors are very damaging to vision. Liu Yufen also suggested that everyday children should stay away from electronic products as far as possible, and do more outdoor exercises in the sun. Try to eat less sweets and eat more fruits and vegetables. In terms of age, she suggests treating as much as possible before the age of 23.
