Patient's question:
At four and a half months, Baobao already started special training, standing with adults holding his armpits. Now he stands very well, and he dislikes jumping and hopping. As a result, the elders said that standing too early can lead to bowlegs. I don't know what to do? Concerning how to coordinate...Doctor's answer:
A bit earlier, wait until 78 months, that's almost there. At this time, the child has already learned to crawl and may start learning to walk. If the child walks too early, it is easy to cause visual fatigue. Here are the reasons:The visual development of infants after birth is not yet fully developed. Crawling allows infants to see clearly the things they can see, which helps promote healthy visual development. On the contrary, if the child learns to walk too early, due to the inability to see distant objects clearly, the child will try to adjust the refractive power and focus of the eyes to look at the objects. This can cause fatigue and harm to the delicate eyes of the child. Repeatedly doing this can damage the vision. This is similar to how uncorrected nearsightedness can worsen vision.
On the other hand, crawling is usually done indoors, which can prevent direct exposure of the eyes to strong outdoor light. Learning to walk, however, is usually done outdoors, which inevitably exposes the child's eyes to the harm of strong light. Outdoors, ultraviolet and infrared rays in sunlight can directly reach the child's eyes. When retinal pigment cells metabolize infrared light and focus it on the retina, due to the strong heating effect of infrared light, the temperature of the retina will rise rapidly, leading to retinal damage from infrared light. Main symptoms include blurred vision and vision loss.
When ultraviolet light enters the eye, it can damage the conjunctiva and cornea, inhibit the cell division of the conjunctiva and cornea, and cause symptoms such as foreign body sensation, irritation, photophobia, and tearing.
