spectacles for kids

 

With the increase in the use of mobiles, laptops, and computers, we can say that human beings are now dependent on technology and there is also an increase in the use of screen time which is affecting the eyes immensely. 

Not just only the grown-up but kids are also suffering from the same and we have seen massive growth in eye issues in the last few years. According to WHO, Globally, at least 2.2 billion people have a near or distant vision impairment. In at least 1 billion, almost half of these cases, vision impairment could have been prevented or has yet to be addressed. 

According to WHO, each eye condition requires a different, timely response. There are effective interventions covering promotion, prevention, treatment, and rehabilitation that address the needs associated with eye conditions and vision impairment. Some are among the most cost-effective and feasible of all healthcare interventions to implement. For example, an uncorrected refractive error can be corrected with spectacles or surgery while cataract surgery can restore vision.

Here are some reasons why kids need spectacles.  

To Correct Vision:  

The first and basic reason for kids to wear spectacles is for vision correction.  

To strengthen the vision of a weak eye:

To help strengthen the vision of a weak eye (amblyopia or “lazy eye”) This is required when the prescription for both eyes is different. 

Eye Protection: 

Another reason can be for eye protection from external dust, air debris, harmful UV radiation, or blue light from screens that can highly damage the eyes.

The next reason behind kids wearing spectacles is to correct strabismus. To help straighten the eyes when they are crossed or misaligned.
