Abstract:
The myopia in children is on the rise and has become a major threat to public health,attracting extensive at-tention worldwide.Premyopia is an indication for the accurate prediction of myopia.Children that have premyopia are ex-tremely likely to develop myopia,and these children make up a substantial portion.Hence,it is imperative that we devote our efforts to the premyopia population.In the premyopia eyes,there is a decline in the accommodation force,which is comparable to mild myopia.Timely detection and efficient preventative interventions on premyopia may mitigate the inci-dence of myopia,postpone the development of myopia,safeguard children's eyesight,and further improve their quality of life.Some treatments for preventing and controlling premyopia involve encouraging outdoor activities,using repeated low-level red-light therapy,applying low-dose atropine treatment,and utilizing orthokeratology.Furthermore,it encompasses several innovative technologies,such as flat-light defocusing lenses and traditional Chinese medicine treatment.We must grasp the critical period of premyopia and actively investigate cutting-edge methods for myopia prevention and control.Fur-thermore,we should carefully employ these new technologies with the goal of improving the well-being of patients.
