How old should children be for appropriate development?

Patient's question:

I would like to ask about the standard vision for children. My son is 8 years old, with a vision of 0.3 in his left eye and 0.5 in his right eye. How should it be treated?

Doctor's answer:

Consider the relationship between congenital genetic factors, poor congenital development, and refractive errors caused by improper eye use and lack of outdoor activities in the later stage. Take the baby to a regular hospital's ophthalmology department for an eye examination. If there is a problem, use atropine eye ointment for dilation, adjust the degree, and then wear a pair of suitable glasses for correction. Encourage the baby to look at distant objects more often and participate in outdoor aerobic exercises, such as playing badminton and table tennis.
