My child is severely nearsighted. What should he eat and wear glasses to avoid increasing his nearsightedness, doctor? (Nhung, Ho Chi Minh City)

To avoid increasing the degree, you should participate in a myopia control program at a medical facility that offers this service. Normally, you need to have an eye exam and periodic refraction every 6 months.

Depending on the level of myopia and response to treatment, the doctor may prescribe glasses, contact lenses or specialized eye drops to slow or stop the progression of myopia.

Eat a balanced diet, pay attention to supplementing foods containing vitamin A, carotene such as red meat, seafood, eggs, milk, red, yellow, orange vegetables and fruits. Increasing outdoor activities, under natural light and open spaces can help supplement nutrients for the eyes and reduce eye fatigue. This helps reduce the risk of myopia in children who are not yet nearsighted, but does not slow down the increase in degree in children who are nearsighted.
