Will Myopia Get Deeper And Deeper? How Many Years Have You Been Deceived
I often see this point of view: wearing glasses will get more and more myopia. When myopia is short-sighted, I can’t see clearly. Most people choose to correct myopia with glasses or surgery, but a small number of people do not want surgery or wear glasses. They think that wearing glasses will deepen myopia. Some parents even refuse to wear glasses to their children after discovering that their children are nearsighted, for fear that the glasses will not be taken off as soon as they are worn, and even the deeper the nearsightedness they wear.

So, is this approach really correct? Does it make sense?
First of all, parents who are worried that their myopia is getting deeper and deeper, or that they cannot take off their glasses as soon as they are worn, can get Aier Orthokeratology lenses. Orthokeratology lens is a special contact lens. It only needs to be worn at night and you can have clear naked vision during the day without wearing glasses. It effectively gets rid of the shackles of frame glasses. Not only that, but more importantly, they are relatively ordinary frame glasses. Orthokeratology lens can effectively delay the increase of myopia, so it is especially suitable for teenagers over 8 years old.
Secondly, the deepening of myopia is not the "cause" of the glasses. This "pot" glasses cannot be carried. The increase in myopia is generally only related to the following factors:
Unreasonable eye use habits
In this age of playing with mobile phones before eating and going to bed, everyone has long neglected to care for the eyes. Too much indulge in mobile games or online games, premature contact with electronic products such as mobile phones and IPADs, and excessive use of eyes at close range due to academic pressure. Bad use of eyes leads to a deepening of myopia, not glasses.
Innate genetic factors
Myopia has a high genetic predisposition. Many people become myopia early when they go to kindergarten or elementary school. Most of these people are carriers of myopia genes. Even after wearing glasses, some people's myopia may grow slowly. , Myopia will not gradually stabilize until adulthood.
Unsuitable glasses
Some spectacle shops have the phenomenon of shoddy and inaccurate refraction. If you wear glasses with a high number, it will inevitably make myopia worse. Therefore, optometry must go to an eye hospital, where a professional optometrist will perform medical optometry.
No distinction between true and false myopia
It is best for adolescents to undergo mydriasis for the first optometry to distinguish between true and false myopia and accurate myopia. A small number of adolescents may have false myopia caused by excessive use of the eyes when they are first fitted with glasses. They do not need to wear glasses, as long as they pay attention to eye hygiene, they can recover. Ordinary optical shops will not dilate pupils and refraction, which may make false myopia "fake it".
If you are worried that your myopia is getting deeper and deeper, or you don't like to wear glasses, you can also correct myopia after adulthood and say goodbye to myopia once and for all.
