Do you like to relax like this while lying down and brushing your phone. Recently, a female college student was diagnosed with strabismus due to long-term lying on her side while playing with her phone. She claimed that "on average, playing with her phone for 10 hours a day results in decreased visual function, and it is difficult to distinguish between flat and three-dimensional vision." This incident has attracted attention after media reports. Many netizens quickly "seat themselves in the right spot": lying on their side playing with their phones, using their eyes incorrectly, and using their eyes excessively for a long time. It seems that they have all been hit, and they are also worried about whether they will also squint in the long run. Sun Li, the director of ophthalmology at Jiangsu Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine Hospital, told reporters that, The sudden onset of strabismus in young people is mostly due to problems with eye fusion function. In the absence of external causes such as thyroid exophthalmos and arterial nerve paralysis, it is more likely that long-term unilateral eye use, fatigue, and other factors have induced congenital potential factors, which accelerate the development of the disease and form dominant strabismus. Generally, patients with intermittent strabismus who receive professional treatment and correct eye use will receive a Planned improvements The reporter learned that strabismus generally refers to the misaligned position of the eyeball. When one eye fixates on a certain target, the other eye deviates from that target. The causes of strabismus are relatively complex, including congenital factors such as genetics, abnormal development of an extraocular muscle, as well as acquired factors such as trauma, intracranial lesions, etc. Incorrect posture and excessive eye use may not necessarily trigger strabismus, but myopia, dry eye syndrome, and eye fatigue are also the three most common problems in clinical practice. Sun Li emphasized that excessive eye use may also cause serious eye complications such as retinal tears and even central retinopathy. Ms. Zhang (pseudonym), who is 40 years old, already has myopia of over 700 degrees. She is usually busy with work and uses a computer to read her phone a lot. In addition, she tutors her children to do homework and stays up late every day. Recently, due to excessive eye use and fatigue, her eyes have retinal tears and shallow retinal detachment. When she came to see the doctor, there was already a large tear in the retina of her eyes. Fortunately, laser treatment was done in a timely manner to repair it. Sun Li told reporters that retinal detachment is very dangerous, and once completely detached, she may lose sight, and even surgery may not be able to fully recover. In response to the problem of poor and excessive eye use among modern people, experts provide three suggestions: first, do not spend too much time watching computers or mobile phones, do not become addicted to games or TV shows, keep your eyes on the go, and stand up and walk every half hour to divert your attention; Secondly, maintaining a certain distance between the eyes and maintaining a good posture, especially for teenagers, can worsen problems such as nearsightedness and binocular disparity by lowering their heads and doing homework sideways; Thirdly, when you are tired with your eyes, you can use hot air to slightly smoke your eyes. For those who enjoy drinking tea, you can also choose to brew 2g of each of Dendrobium, Ophiopogon, goji berries, chrysanthemums, and cassia seeds in tea, which has a certain eye protection effect.
