Since 2004, Shijiazhuang Primary and secondary School students' Vision Health Intervention Center has established kids eyeglasses near me wearing files for some primary and secondary school students in the main urban area of the city. According to incomplete statistics, at present, the poor visual acuity rate of primary school students in Shijiazhuang is 25.5%, the poor visual acuity rate of junior high school students is 51.43%, and the poor visual acuity rate of senior high school students is 71%.

 

"Myopia is becoming younger and more digital." The intervention center's five-year vision monitoring of students who entered a primary school in the provincial capital in 2013 showed that the rate of poor vision among the same group of children increased by at least 35 percentage points in five years.

 

In 2013, there were 6 classes in the first grade of this primary school, of which 157 were boys and 168 were girls, and the rate of poor vision was 15% and 20% respectively. In 2014, it increased to 17% and 26% respectively. In 2017, the rate of poor vision increased to 38% for boys and 50% for girls, and the class with the highest rate of poor vision reached about 60%. They are only 10 or 11 years old.

 

Last year, the intervention center collected 20,000 visual acuity files from elementary, middle and high schools. It is found that the visual attainment rate of grade 4 to 6 is 27 percentage points lower than that of grade 1 to grade 3, which belongs to the outbreak period of poor vision, and the outbreak point of moderate (300-600 degrees) myopia is also concentrated in this school period; From the second to the first grade, the medium and high myopia increased significantly, and the high myopia of 600 degrees and above reached 13.8%.

 

"In recent years, the phenomenon of myopia at a younger age has become more and more obvious. In the first and second grade of primary school, even some children in kindergarten are wearing glasses, and the degree of first wearing glasses has increased significantly." Cui Zengmin, chief ophthalmologist of the First Hospital of Hebei Medical University, introduced that some primary school students have more than 200 degrees of glasses from the start. With the increase of growth and academic burden, eyesight is worrying.

 

In high myopia, some of them will develop into pathological myopia, resulting in blinding fundus complications. Highly myopic macular degeneration, retinal detachment, glaucoma and other fundus lesions can cause severe visual impairment, potentially leading to irreversible low vision or blindness, which ophthalmologists consider "catastrophic" and "cannot be resolved optically or surgically."
