Watch how much time a day a child spends on classes that directly affect the eyesight. Do not let the child without breaks learn lessons, read, watch TV or play computer games . Let your child learn to do 5 - 15 minute breaks between classes and entertainments that require eye strain. At this time, you can do gymnastics for the eyes or help around the house. Take care that the child does not sit for hours in one pose above books or at the screen, except that remember that the distance between the book and the eyes should not be less than 30 cm, and the distance between the child and the TV - less than 2 m.
In sunny weather, teach the child to wear sunglasses. Bright light can spoil the eyesight. Be sure to watch the lighting in the apartment and in the child's room. It should not be too bright or too dim. Best of all, if the lighting of the room is not only the top, the fixtures will help to divide the room into zones reserved for sleep, games and classes. Where the child spends time for activities that require increased strain on the eyes, the light should be bright, but not sharp, not beating into the eyes.
If your child is engaged in sports, be attentive to all injuries and complaints. If the baby complains of nausea, dizziness, flickering in the eyes, short-term partial or complete loss of vision, this is an occasion to consult a doctor.

It is especially important to monitor the state of the child's eyes, if the family already has glasses - you know that life is easier without glasses. Do not try to replace the small child with glasses lenses , do not frighten operations, but do not rely on the wonders of modern medicine. Any problem is easier to prevent than to eliminate, and vision is one of the most important functions of our body, which requires close attention. Therefore, be careful and follow all the recommendations of specialists.
