Anyone who has taken care of a newborn should know that babies may have some eye problems when they are young, but after three months, this situation will significantly improve and gradually disappear completely. However, every baby's situation is different, and some babies may be a little longer. So, is it normal for a baby to have eyes at two and a half years old?
Is it normal for the eyes of a two-and-a-half-year-old baby
It is definitely abnormal for babies to have eye contact at the age of two and a half. There are two situations where babies have eye contact. One is that the inner corners of their eyes widen, making them appear somewhat eye contact. As they grow and develop, the inner corners of their eyes widen and narrow, making it difficult to see. The second situation is caused by the excessive strength or paralysis of the extraocular muscles that control eye movement in children. There are many reasons that can cause babies to have eye contact, and different causes require different treatment methods,
How to correct a child's eye problems
1. Limit or counteract close range viewing to improve eye sensitivity
Limit students' time, distance, lighting, posture, etc. for reading books, watching TV, computers, etc., and take a 5-10 minute break every 30 minutes or so. But this method is not very reliable because modern students cannot do without reading books, using computers, etc., and they are spending more and more time "looking up close". Therefore, priority should be given to using a telephoto lens to counteract the near view reflex, and to simulate reading and writing as a distant rest. The more students read and write, the better their eye rest, and the less likely myopia is to develop;
Frequent eye movements or exercises such as playing table tennis can improve the sensitivity of eye muscle movements, but it is difficult for students to do them accurately or consistently. Therefore, it is best to use a microcomputer controlled sensitive mirror, which can be done very accurately and easily persisted in the long term.
2. Reasonably match glasses
Preventing blurred eyes and elongation of the eye axis caused by squinting: When looking far without glasses, blurred eyes can induce chemical changes in the eye, leading to elongation of the eye axis; Narrowing the eyes can compress the long axis of the eye and cause the occurrence and development of myopia.
People with myopia above 50 degrees should wear glasses. If they don't wear glasses, children may have difficulty seeing distant objects clearly or squint their eyes, which can cause the eyeball to become longer or cause changes in myopia related factors and accelerate the development of myopia.
Wear it below 250 degrees only when looking far or at the blackboard, and do not wear it during normal times or reading (because it is clear to see up close and blurry to see far). Wear it all day when looking above 250 degrees (wearing it occasionally and not wearing it may cause the eye axis to become longer due to frequent blurred vision).
When babies are over two years old, they still have symptoms of eye contact, which is definitely abnormal. At this time, parents must take their children to the ophthalmology department of the hospital for examination. If they can still be corrected, they must follow the doctor's advice and help their children well. After all, this is a lifelong event that is very important.
