On this growing eye disease, Dr. Namrata Sharma, Dr. Rajesh Sinha, Dr. Rajeev Mukherjee, Dr. Rishi Mohan and Dr. Ajay Dabe have expressed concern over this growing disease of the eye. During this time Dr. Namrata Sharma, Professor of AIIMS, RP Center Said that due to Myopia, children are unable to see far away things, but the most worry is that due to lack of screening of children, this disease is not found in the beginning. When the children have more difficulty in seeing, then the parents get the eyes of the children examined, but by then the number of children’s eyes has increased considerably. This disease can also take the form of growing lazy eye, which is a serious disorder of the eye.
Opthalmologist Dr. Rajiv Mukherjee Said that the big reason for children having myopia in the eyes of children is not just a high screen time, but not getting out of the homes is a big factor. Children who do not get out of the houses every day, do not look far, their eyes number goes on rapidly and a time comes when they can see only things nearby and the distant things start to see them blurred. This disease can take the form of growing lazy eye which is a serious disorder of the eye. When this happens, the child is never able to see clearly.
Why it is important to see far
Mayopia’s growth can stop
Dr. Rajesh Sinha, Professor of AIIMS New Delhi, RP Center Says, ‘We can stop the growth of Myopia. Children can be stopped by applying glasses to the rapidly growing number of eyes. Medications can also be given in the initial stage of Myopia, this can also reduce the eye number, but what is most important is that it can be known as soon as possible. For this, it is very important to do children screening.
Dr. Rajiv says that for children to stop myopia, it is most important that at least every 4 -year -old child should be given basic screening, so that it is known how much the child is visible. If there is a slight difficulty in seeing him, then he can be tried to save his eyesight by giving him a simple glasses and can prevent the problem of legendary in his eyes.
Screening is a big advantage in schools
Dr. Rishi Mohan It is said that whenever you do screening in schools, many children are found there, whose vision is not complete. What happens is that if the child does not see written on the blackboard in the class, then he comes forward and his work goes on, but due to lack of investigation, he becomes myopia, which is not known. However, the schools where they sit in the class by rotation, then it is a little easier to identify myopia in children there.
What to do parents
Dr. Namrata says that screening of eyes of children should be done once a year. On the other hand, if the child has myopia and his glasses are installed, then the most important it is to continue his follow -up, take him to the doctor regularly and keep his eyes checked, so that his eyes are known about the effect on his eyes. Give the child out, do physical activity out of the house.
