With the increase of video teaching and the extension of eye time, the incidence of myopia in children is also on the rise. Because children are in the stage of growth and development, the degree of myopia will increase due to excessive eye use, improper childrens eyeglasses and other factors. Therefore, when children choose glasses, parents should pay more attention.

Children with glasses, first of all, in an authoritative optometry medical institution for eye examination to rule out eye diseases affecting vision, and then medical optometry. After determining the exact degree, how can we choose a suitable pair of glasses for children? Parents should pay attention to the following points.

Nose pad

Children's heads are very different from adults, especially the height of the nose bridge, most children's nose bridge is low, therefore, children's glasses are best to choose a high nose bracket, or adjustable nose bracket glasses. Otherwise, the nose support of the frame is low, the glasses are easy to stick to the eyeball, and even touch the eyelashes, causing eye discomfort.

Frame material

The material of the frame is mainly divided into metal frame and plastic sheet frame. Most children are active, and their glasses are put on and placed at will. The use of metal frames is easy to deform, break, and metal frames may cause skin allergies. The plastic shelf is not easy to change and is difficult to damage.

weight

Choose children's glasses must pay attention to weight. Because the weight of the glasses is directly acting on the bridge of the nose, if too heavy it is easy to cause nasal bridge pain, which may seriously lead to nasal bone degeneration. Therefore, the weight of children's glasses is generally below 20 grams.

Frame size

Children's glasses should have adequate field of vision. Because children have a wide range of activities, try not to choose a frame that will produce shadows and blind corners. If the frame is too small, the field of view will become smaller; The frame is too large, easy to wear instability, and the weight will increase. Therefore, children's eyeglass frames should be moderate in size.

Lens selection

The optical quality of the lens will affect the visual quality, so children's glasses should choose lenses with good light transmission rate to avoid poor lenses to aggravate the degree of myopia. From a safety point of view, children should choose safe and unbreakable resin lenses instead of glass, which can avoid eye trauma caused by broken lenses.

Price

Most parents think that the more expensive the better, the best for their children. In fact, the diopter of children's eyes changes faster, often six months to a year to replace, from an economic point of view, choose the right price is more important.
