4. Sitting around the television can affect children’s vision

This belief has been passed from generation to generation and will continue to happen if it is contemplated that the children have the ability to focus close up much better than adults. However, if the child stays close to the device may be because they do not have good distance vision, to suffer myopia, which has no relation with watching television. It is therefore recommended that small is evaluated regularly by an ophthalmologist to make sure you do not need glasses to see better.

5. Using lenses or glasses regularly causes increased dependence on them

Both glasses and lenses (including contact lenses) are prescribed to correct vision abnormalities, and porting will not be noticeable difference in visual quality. For example, if indicated to improve blurred vision does not take positions cause the object to be observed is not clearly defined, and therefore to be preferred to use them more frequently. This means that you’re used to seeing better and not to rely on glasses.

6. Myopia and astigmatism with age progress

When the eyeball is longer than normal and the object or image that you want to see is focused in front of the retina, located at the bottom of the eye, and not exactly on it, we can speak of myopia, abnormality in which no unable to see distant objects or images, the opposite is hyperopia, and have some deformity in the eye (like acquiring oval) is called astigmatism issue where the extended objects are compressed, and vice versa. The three ocular abnormalities may be present at birth or they develop between 6 and 16 years, reaching its maximum at age 20. Thus, after this age the eye does not require extensive grading glasses or contact lenses.

7. The above problems are not cured

Until they are diseases of the eye can not say that they heal, but because refractive abnormalities are corrected with eyeglasses or contact lenses. One option is surgery, with the currently popular technique that uses laser beam, it has proven more reliable results with less risk of complications. The laser-assisted refractive surgery is the procedure used by over 80% of worldwide operations for the three cases of ocular abnormalities that have been identified, its technical name is assisted in situ keratomileusis Laser (laser assisted in situ keratomileusis, LASIK). A variant of this technique is the photorefractive keratotomy, in which the cornea is scratched or carving through the laser beam, the operation is performed in minutes (about five) and provides for recovery within hours.
