- 青光眼造成视野缩窄
那, 你发现你眼睛疲劳了, 那怎末办?
- 找视光医生检查。安省境内,只有视光医生 (OD) 和医科医生(MD)才可以合法验眼。
- 拿到看远和看近的度数,两个有时候不一样。
- 看远和看近的度数如果不一样,要做双光镜片或者渐进镜片。(大人和小孩都可以用)。看平板,手机,和电脑,就要用看近的眼镜。
- 做好一点的光学镜片,不是所有的镜片都一样的。德国的蔡司镜片,和 日本的 Hoya镜片都不错。视光医生诊所里面的镜片通常质量都好一点。
- 做防蓝光膜和防紫外线膜好一点的镜片。不是所有的镜片膜都一样的。
- 镜片中心点,上下左右,要量准,对准瞳孔中心。 要找视光专业人士做。
- 有需要的话,要做更专业的双眼测试,和专业人士辅佐下的脑眼协调物理治疗。
眼部健康方面,

- 预防糖尿病上眼。

通常情况下,眼睛的全面检查最少两年做一次。有上面的毛病的或者家里近亲有糖尿病,高血压,和青光眼的, 应该半年或一年做一次眼睛的检查。眼睛不一定是灵魂的窗口,但一定是身体健康的窗口。验一次眼睛,效果堪比一年的健身。做眼睛的检查,可以直接找视光医生预约,无需转介。
