Will wearing glasses for a long time cause the eyeball to deform? Further deepening of myopia may cause exophthalmos. In some patients with hyperthyroidism, retrobulbar tumors will cause exophthalmos, which has little to do with wearing glasses, so there is no need to worry about exophthalmos when wearing glasses.

Wearing glasses is due to refractive errors such as nearsightedness or farsightedness, which can cause deformation of the eyeball. If the patient has a refractive error, the eyes may be deformed whether they are wearing the eyes or not. If you are just ordinary myopia, you don't have to worry about this problem.

There are two main things to know about exophthalmos.

1. Protopia refers to the lengthening of the anterior and posterior diameters of the eyeball. Generally, it is not a person with a high degree of myopia greater than 600 degrees, and the eyeball will not be significantly prominent after wearing glasses for a long time.

2. Generally, myopia no longer develops after the age of 18, but some people with high myopia will continue to increase the number of depths every year, along with the continued lengthening of the eye axis. Generally, the normal eye axis is between 23-24mm. Some studies believe that for every 1mm increase in the eye axis of high myopia, the degree of myopia increases by 160-300 degrees.

1. Because some people have not worn glasses in the past, they can't adapt to the difference between seeing things with glasses and real objects for a while, and have dizziness, dizziness, or even dare not walk. If this happens, they should stick to wearing glasses and gradually adapt to it.

2. If the glasses cannot be used for a long time, the lens should be further reviewed to check whether it is consistent with the data of the photometric inspection, including checking whether the pupil distance is consistent with the optical center of the lens.

3. Young people with a degree higher than 600 degrees should often wear myopia glasses. Those with mild degrees below 200 degrees need to wear them when they see far away, and they can not wear them when they see near.

4. After wearing glasses, pay attention to eye hygiene to prevent the development of myopia.

5. The protection of glasses is very important. When wearing them, they should be worn with both hands to avoid loosening of the temples. When placing the lenses, try not to touch the tabletop, etc., to avoid wear and scratches.

Therefore, wearing glasses itself will not cause eye deformation. The real reason for the deformation is improper eye protection, which deepens myopia and causes eye deformation. We usually must pay attention to whether our glasses are correct and cherish our glasses.
