Question
How can I help my child prevent nearsightedness?
Answer
Methods to prevent nearsightedness in children include providing a good visual environment, maintaining proper reading and writing posture, taking regular breaks and looking into the distance, performing eye exercises, avoiding reading or writing in poor lighting conditions, and increasing outdoor activity time. Additionally, a balanced diet, especially foods rich in vitamins A, B1, B2, C, and E, can also help prevent nearsightedness.
