Nowadays, mobile phones and computers are ubiquitous in people's lives, providing them with a different kind of enjoyment. At the same time, mobile phones and computers have also given children many bad habits, and prolonged play has caused certain damage to their eyes. Therefore, mothers are very worried because many of their friends' children have developed myopia. So what's wrong with a 2-year-old baby's myopia?
What causes myopia in a 2-year-old baby
Mobile phones, computers, or iPads are not beneficial for children's vision, so most children's myopia is caused by this condition. Especially for babies under 2 years old, because the refractive and other regulatory systems of the eyes are not yet fully developed at this time, the eyes of babies may have difficulty adjusting and adapting to strong light stimulation, which can lead to myopia over time.
How to help children get rid of their phones
To help children stay away from their phones, the first step is to shift their attention, especially when the child is crying and asking for a phone. Parents can give the child other things to do or find toys that the baby is interested in, which can divert the child's attention. Secondly, they can establish rules for playing with the phone for the child, which can gradually reduce the time the child spends playing with the phone. Over time, the child's bad habits will be changed.
Every baby's vision is very important because poor vision can have a significant impact on their future. Therefore, it is best to ensure the child's vision and cultivate good habits from an early age, so that there will be no problems with poor vision. It is also important to inform the child at all times about the damage of mobile phones to their vision.
