Question
Male, 8 years old. Lately, I’ve noticed that my child enjoys watching TV at an angle and tends to squint while doing so. Later, after a hospital check-up, it was found that he has mild myopia and strabismus. What should one eat for good eyesight if diagnosed with myopia?
Answer
Generally, when a baby develops myopia, it is necessary to correct it promptly. Usually, timely corrective lens fitting at a young age can lead to better treatment outcomes for myopia. In daily life, consuming some cod liver oil, tomatoes, carrots, etc., can have a good effect on improving eyesight. Different causes can lead to different symptoms, and patients need to seek prompt and systematic examination at regular three-level A hospitals based on their own condition for targeted treatment. In addition, patients should maintain regular lifestyle, do a good job of cold prevention and warmth preservation, eat more light and soft foods in daily diet, and often ventilate and drink hot water.
