How to choose glasses for high myopia

High myopia Due to the high degree of myopia, the lenses are generally thicker, but if the lenses are too thick, it will hurt the bridge of the nose after wearing it for a long time, and the eyes are uncomfortable. So, how to wear glasses for high myopia to be comfortable and correct myopia and relieve eye fatigue? Professional opticians can provide some advice to friends with high myopia: 1. Try to choose smaller spectacle frames for high myopia: large spectacle frames not only increase the thickness around the lenses, but also increase the weight of the lenses. Choose a small frame that is best suited for people with high myopia, and don't use rimless frames, which will expose the thickest part of the glasses and make them visually thicker. Second, aspherical lenses should be selected for high myopia: aspherical lenses with the same refractive index are thinner and lighter than spherical lenses, with reduced optical distortion, minimal edge aberrations, and clearer and more natural vision. Third, if the face is more fat, you can choose the temples with curves: the temples will not be pinched between the cheeks when the frame is small. Fourth, try to choose high refractive index plastic lenses within your own tolerance: lighter, thinner, and not easy to break. Fifth, the low vision of the highly myopic eye is difficult to correct, and wearing fully corrected glasses is often intolerable, so the glasses should be corrected at a low level, and it is advisable to strive for some improvement in vision and to maintain comfort, and there is no need to pursue the best corrected vision. Sixth, high myopia, especially myopia above -12.00D, often has comorbidities, such as lens and vitreous opacity, fundus lesions, etc., you can see what the best corrected visual acuity is when refraction, if it can reach 1.0 or above, it is preliminarily considered that there are no comorbidities or mild comorbidities. High myopia should reduce strenuous exercise to avoid retinal detachment. I have a lot of contact with the number of customers, and I can really understand their inconvenience and pain, and surgical recovery is often not feasible. The higher the degree, the greater the risk, and a large number of patients with high number are unable to undergo myopia surgery, so you can consider lens implantation, and it is best to do only one eye to reduce the risk! The height number is often accompanied by a series of eye degenerative lesions, and is prone to serious complications, such as retinal detachment, cataract, glaucoma, vitreous opacity, etc. Therefore, friends with high myopia should pay special attention to avoid violent head concussions and impacts, reduce the possibility of retinal detachment, and do regular fundus examinations and vision examinations every year!
