Treatment: exercises, an eyepiece and spectacles will help treat nearsightedness.

Around the age of 3 to 9 years, dullness can be influenced so that irreversible visual impairment does not occur.

Early diagnosis is therefore the key to success. This is followed by early treatment, already in pre-school age.

There is no cure or pill for myopia.

The main goal of the treatment is to make the weaker, duller eye work, to focus. It must be active. This is achieved by overlapping the better seeing eye. And this is done with the help of an eyepiece. Alternatively, the eye is covered in some other way.

The development of the visual abilities of the affected eye should be ensured by eye exercises. It is also referred to as orthoptic or pleoptic exercise. Different functions such as recognition of colour, shape, arrangement in space are exercised.

Suitable are various games, puzzles. Both eye and brain are exercised at the same time, nerve connections are formed. The younger the age of treatment, the higher the prerequisite for success.

The greatest success in the treatment of myopia is noted in the period of 4-5 years of life.

Initial treatment by a doctor is important, after which it can be practiced at home. The cooperation of parents and a specialist is essential.

Of course, adherence to treatment and its principles is also important. And in childhood, this is the responsibility of the parent.

The latest treatment options for myopia also focus on the use of virtual reality, such as with Oculus Rift technology.

According to Wikipedia, neurologist Susane R. Barry learned 3D perception at the age of 38. Alternatively, the information is also given by a study on the treatment of dullsight at different ages.

If the cause is a dioptric error, corrective correction with glasses or lenses is chosen. In the case of cataracts or squint, surgical treatment may follow. In certain cases, laser treatment is also possible.
