Can this treat children's myopia?

Patient's question:

Hello! My son is seven years old and has 125 degrees of myopia in both eyes. My friend introduced him to a private hospital to treat his myopia. His child also has true myopia. The hospital's method is as follows:
1. Give the child traditional Chinese medicine, three times a day. The medicine is prepared by them. 880 yuan per week.

Doctor's answer:

First, their traditional Chinese medicine costs are too high. Traditional Chinese medicine may have some effect on the treatment of myopia, but the specific efficacy is unclear. I think if ophthalmology in China is effective, it should be reported. But I have never seen it. Maybe I am too ignorant. I suggest you take your child for a special eye examination to see if myopia and amblyopia are indeed refractive errors. Wearing glasses is the best treatment method.
