Question
Recently, my child has been telling me they can’t see the blackboard clearly. They are still quite young and don’t play with phones. They don’t read in bed and their posture while writing is correct. How is it possible for them not to be able to see the blackboard? I took them to the hospital and found out it’s pediatric retinopathy. What should I do?
Answer
Generally speaking, there are many symptoms of pediatric retinopathy, and the causes are also diverse, so it’s necessary to have an ophthalmic examination at the hospital for a diagnosis. If a child already has retinopathy, early treatment is essential; the sooner the intervention, the greater the chance of maintaining their current vision. Typically, this condition is caused by congenital development and has a low chance of spontaneous healing.
