The hazards of children sleeping with lights on

  Many babies' brains are not fully developed, and at the beginning, they cannot correctly recognize day and night. So the sleeping environment around the little baby can easily affect his biological clock. If a child's room is relatively dark during the day and they often turn on the lights to sleep at night, it is easy for them to have illusions. So, what are the hazards of children sleeping with lights on?

  

The hazards of children sleeping with lights on1

  Firstly, if children sleep with lights on for a long time, it will affect the normal development of their vision. Long term sleep of children under light is very detrimental to their visual development, which can easily cause damage to their retina and directly affect their visual development. There are also studies showing that turning on lights while children are sleeping increases the risk of myopia.

  Secondly, if a child sleeps with the light on for a long time, it will have a certain impact on their sleep quality. If a child often sleeps with the light on, it can lead to a shortened sleep time at night, shallow sleep, and a higher risk of being awakened, often causing restlessness, poor mood, and even difficulty falling asleep.

  Once again, sleeping with lights on for a long time can directly affect the normal growth and development of children. If a child sleeps with the light on for a long time, it may lead to a significant decrease in their growth hormone levels, which will directly affect the normal metabolism process of the human body and thus affect the child's growth and development.

  In addition, if children are really afraid of the dark, they can use the night light. Because the night light is very dim, the impact will not be too significant.
