What are the dangers of myopia?

1. Induce a series of diseases: Myopia can lead to vitreous opacities, thinning of the sclera and retina, peripheral retinal degeneration, retinal holes, retinal detachment, choroidal neovascularization, glaucoma, cataracts, macular degeneration, macular hemorrhage, etc. There are also some subtle but more serious effects on children: inattention, decreased appetite, slow reaction, poor water level, mental confusion, etc.

2. Limiting employment options: Poor eyesight can easily cause some students to avoid outdoor activities, which may lead to physical weakness in the near future and is not conducive to the formation of a positive attitude towards hard work and progress. What is more serious is that visual impairment will cause young people to encounter a series of employment restrictions. The number of candidates who are "restricted from taking exams" due to poor eyesight is increasing year by year. Those with naked eye vision lower than 1.0 cannot apply for military academies, certain medical majors, navigation, aviation, geochemical analysis and many other majors. This is undoubtedly a fatal blow to young people who have aspired to make a difference in these fields since childhood.

3. Impact on learning efficiency: The most direct manifestation of myopia is easy visual fatigue, blurred vision, dry and sore eyes, difficulty concentrating, irritability and even dizziness, which can lead to adverse consequences such as reduced memory and loss of interest in learning.

4. Lead to physical and mental abnormalities: Myopia not only induces some eye diseases, but also poses a serious threat to the overall physical and mental health development, causing adolescents to become closed. Conservative, fragile and with more serious personality defects.

5. Inherited to the next generation: Generally speaking, if one parent has severe myopia, it is likely to be passed on to the child. Therefore, protecting children's eyesight is not only about giving them a clear vision, but also laying a solid foundation for the healthy vision of future generations. Otherwise, if one generation is nearsighted, the disease may be passed down from generation to generation, causing endless harm.
