Patient's question:
The child was born not long ago, and their eyes always tear up, and they also love crying. May I ask if the child can wear glasses if they have myopia?Doctor's answer:
Hello: It is recommended that the child wear glasses for a long-term correction of vision. After developing myopia, wearing glasses serves not only to correct refractive errors for clear vision but also plays another important role in preventing the loss of balance between the eye's accommodative and convergent functions. Therefore, even if you have mild myopia below 300 degrees, if it has affected the balance between accommodation and convergence, especially if there is a condition of latent strabismus, you must wear glasses to avoid further disruption of this balance. Over time, this can have negative effects on the healthy development of the eyes.
