According to the World Vision Report of the World Health Organization (WHO), in 2019, at least 2.2 billion people in the world suffer from visual impairment, and this number is expected to increase to 3.4 billion by 2030. According to a study published in the British Journal of Ophthalmology (BJO), one-third of children and adolescents in the world suffer from visual impairment. Protecting children's vision is urgent.
1. Causes of myopia in children
There are many factors that affect myopia in children. In addition to genetic factors, high sugar intake, watching TV, computers, mobile phone screens, etc., a very important influencing factor is to concentrate on watching toys with screens for a long time, such as focusing on children's products such as game consoles and early education machines for a long time. These products will do everything possible to attract children to participate in them for a long time, and children's deep participation will lead to visual fatigue. Due to lack of self-discipline, even if the eyes are tired, children will not take their eyes away from the screen, gradually causing children's vision to decline.
2. How to prevent myopia in children
There are also many ways to prevent myopia in children, such as increasing children's outdoor activity time, paying attention to writing posture, etc. The design of children's toys can also effectively prevent myopia in children, such as reducing the size and usage of the screen in the design of toy products. For example, the Popokill Smart Chessboard Puzzle Game Console, although this product is a children's game console, it uses a soft light design, and the light source is covered with silicone. The light can also be adjusted according to the environment, which greatly reduces the impact of light on children's vision.
