When your child is nearsighted and the myopia level increases rapidly, parents may be more anxious. The optometrist will usually recommend that the child be fitted with myopia control lenses when they go for childrens glasses. This kind of lens is through the lens group, in front of the retina to produce a focus surface, so as to use the focus effect to control the degree of growth, the difference is that the layout of the lens on the lens is different, so as to appear different prevention and control effect.

Emphasize prescription lenses, but neglect optometry and eye examination.

Many parents find that their children's eyesight is not good, often in order to save trouble, take their children to the street optical store with computerized optometry, and then hastily equipped with glasses for their children. Some parents think that their child's eyeglasses are just eyeglasses and do not need professional optometry and medical examination.

There are many reasons for children's poor vision and vision loss, sometimes not necessarily due to myopia and myopic astigmatism, some fundus lesions are also manifested as vision loss. Therefore, children should undergo a systematic eye examination to check for amblyopia, strabismus, congenital cataracts, congenital glaucoma, congenital fundopathy, congenital nystagmus, and so on, before they are fitted with eyeglasses. In addition, it is recommended that parents should go to a regular eye hospital every year to have their children's eyesight checked and have an eye examination, which can detect children's eye problems early and ensure early detection and treatment.

Hasty prescription of spectacles without dilated pupil examination.

When children are found to be nearsighted, do not rush to give your child glasses, but distinguish between true myopia and pseudomyopia. Some parents take it upon themselves to choose glasses for their children when they realize that their children's vision is declining. 15-year-old children and teenagers must be dilated, so as to reflect the true vision of the child's eyes.

Thirdly, when choosing eyeglasses, you should always look for expensive ones, but ignore whether they are suitable for your child or not.

There are many varieties of eyeglass frames and lenses on the market, and the prices vary greatly. Many parents the children's glasses, the pursuit of expensive, that only expensive glasses are good, children with glasses are mainly suitable for their own, children under 10 years of age with glasses, you can choose the soft side of the protection of the nosepiece of the glasses frame, 10 years of age and above can choose the basic full-rimmed frames. Frames should be easy, and under the premise of considering the width of the child's face, the closer the frame size is to the actual pupil distance of the eye, the better. This can be avoided because the frame size is too large, resulting in an excessive amount of lens center of gravity inward shift, which produces wear discomfort prism effect.

Emphasizing the same prescription for both eyes and neglecting the visual development of both eyes.

Many parents blindly pursue the same refractive error in both eyes in order to achieve a beautiful corrective effect when fitting glasses for their children. Every child has a different refractive error in each eye. Refractive error of more than 100-150 diopters in both eyes is called refractive error, of which astigmatism of more than 100 diopters and spherical error of more than 150 diopters may cause unequal images in both eyes of the child, resulting in a decrease in the quality of vision. After the optometrist has examined your child's eyes, he or she will also try on glasses according to your child's eye condition, because every child's tolerance of refractive error is different.

Fifth, the corrected visual acuity requirements are too high, hoping that the clearer the better.

For children's glasses, parents can not take the clearer the better as the standard, and ask for too high corrected visual acuity. Excessive corrected visual acuity will often make the eyes feel suffocation, acidity, fatigue, and pain, and even lead to head swelling, headache, headache, small number of people will also appear inattention, memory loss, forgetfulness, insomnia, and other systemic symptoms, as if a neurasthenia. For children's glasses, corrected visual acuity should not exceed 1.0, and 0.8 or so can see the blackboard in class as appropriate.

To ensure professionalism, it is recommended to go to the big brand store prescription glasses, a high-profile optical store, the first is authorized, and the second is inside the staff is relatively more experienced, so it will be a little more professional. Then you need to choose better lenses.
