Is poor naked eye vision myopia? How to reduce myopia?

Our eyes are our windows to the outside world, so we must protect them well. Improper eye habits can affect vision, and aging and some eye diseases can also have a certain impact on vision, so poor vision is not just related to myopia. So is there any way to reduce the degree of myopia?

Is poor naked eye vision myopia?

Poor vision cannot be simply equated with myopia. Generally, there are these reasons:

1. If you are nearsighted, have an eye exam and glasses fitted for correction.

2. If the elderly have this condition, it may be the onset of presbyopia, which is commonly known as presbyopia. They also need glasses.

3. The elderly may also have cataracts. See a doctor for examination to determine whether surgery is necessary. Once cataracts occur, they cannot be reversed, and the body's ability to recover decreases with age, so we generally recommend surgery as soon as possible.

4. Other eye diseases, such as retinal detachment, retinopathy, uveitis, macular degeneration... will be accompanied by decreased vision.

How to reduce myopia

First: pseudomyopia.

Pseudomyopia is functional myopia, which is caused by excessive use of the eyes, resulting in continuous contraction and spasm of the myometrium muscle, making it difficult to see clearly at a distance. Pseudomyopia can be reduced by relieving visual fatigue, doing eye exercises, and using hot compresses and massage.

Second: true myopia.

True myopia is a pseudomyopia that develops after long-term lack of vision relief. It is caused by the thickening of the lens and the lengthening of the eye axis. If the true myopia is within 300°, it can also be reduced through hot compresses, massage, physical therapy and other methods. If the myopia exceeds 300°, it cannot be reduced. Laser surgery is required to restore vision.

Third: mixed myopia.

Mixed myopia refers to myopia plus astigmatism. Astigmatism is generally congenital, that is, the eyeball is elliptical, and astigmatism cannot be corrected. It can only be slowed down and controlled by supplementing the vitamin nutrition of the eyes.

How to adjust vision

1. Look at the green plants in the distance, stare at them for a little while, then look at the green plants nearby, stare at them for a little while, for 5-10 minutes every day.

2. Rotate your eyes 360 degrees up and down, left and right to the maximum extent, which can improve the flexibility of the optic nerve and reduce the risk of eye diseases. Do this twice a day, once in the morning and once in the evening. Do 30-50 circles each time.

3. Press the acupoints on the eyes more often and do eye exercises more often to protect your eyes.

4. Drink some medicinal teas that have health benefits for the eyes, such as wolfberry chrysanthemum tea and cassia seed tea. Eat more foods that nourish the liver and improve eyesight, such as egg yolks.

5. Pay attention to protecting your eyesight, develop correct writing and reading postures, use computers and mobile phones less often, and pay attention to eye hygiene.
