How to Choose a Suitable Pair of Glasses for the Child?

With the increase of video teaching and the prolonged time of eye use, the incidence of myopia in children is also increasing. Because children are in the growth and development stage, the degree of myopia will continue to increase due to factors such as excessive eye use and improper glasses. Therefore, parents should pay more attention when choosing children’s blue light glasses. When children are equipped with glasses, they must first undergo an eye examination at an authoritative ophthalmology medical institution to eliminate eye diseases that affect vision, and then perform medical optometry. After determining the exact power, how can we choose a suitable pair of anti radiation glasses or blue light blocking glasses for kids ? Parents should pay attention to the following points.

Nose pads

Children’s heads are very different from adults, especially the height of the nose bridge. Most children have lower nose bridges. Therefore, it is best to choose kids anti blue light glasses with high nose pads or adjustable nose pads for glasses. Otherwise, the nose pads of the frames are low, and the glasses are easy to stick to the eyeballs, or even touch the eyelashes, causing eye discomfort.

Frame

The material of the frame is mainly divided into metal frame and plastic sheet frame. Most children are very active and they are relatively casual about taking off, wearing and placing anti glare glasses for kids. Metal frames are easily deformed and broken, and metal frames may cause skin allergies, while plastic frames are not easy to change or damage.

Weight

You must pay attention to the weight when choosing anti radiation glasses for kids. Because the weight of the glasses directly acts on the bridge of the nose, if they are too heavy, it will easily cause soreness in the bridge of the nose, which may cause severe deformation of the nasal bone. Therefore, the weight of children's glasses is generally less than 20 grams.

Mirror socket

Children's glasses should have enough sight areas. Since children have a wide range of activities, try not to choose frames that will produce shadows and blind spots in the line of sight. If the frame is too small, the field of view will become smaller; if the frame is too large, it is easy to wear unstable and the weight will increase. Therefore, children’s eyeglass frames should be of moderate size.

Lens

The optical quality of the lens directly affects the visual quality. Therefore, children’s glasses should choose lenses with good light transmittance to avoid inferior lenses from aggravating myopia. From a safety point of view, children should choose safe and non-breakable resin lenses instead of glass lenses to avoid eye injuries caused by broken lenses.

Price

Most parents think that the more expensive children’s blue light blocking glasses are better, and the best for their children. In fact, the refractive power of children's eyes changes relatively quickly, and it is often replaced in half a year to a year. From an economic point of view, it is more important to choose the kids screen glasses with high quality and the right price.
