Hard to stop the screen addiction "iPad control" multiple eye diseases

"Doctor, please don't tell my father and mother that my eyes are not good, otherwise they will definitely not play iPad for me again!" Recently, many ophthalmologists encountered similar requests. Since entering the summer vacation, the number of patients attending eye clinics in major hospitals has continued to rise, and a considerable part of these cases are caused by long-term attention to the screens of computers, iPads, MP4s, and other electronic terminal products causing dry eyes and visual fatigue.

In fact, long-term staring at the iPad, in addition to the eyes, cervical spine and other parts will also produce discomfort or even lesions, in addition, there are psychological and radiation risks. To this end, the reporter interviewed experts such as ophthalmology, massage and psychology to analyze how to deal with "iPad syndrome."

Looking at electronic products on the subway makes the eyes "injured"

Portable tablet computers and smart phones enable people to access the Internet, play games and entertainment anytime, anywhere, and are no longer constrained by the location. The direct result is that the time for the eyes to look at the electronic terminal has multiplied.

Men in suits and ties can be seen everywhere in the subway. They are dressed in fashionable prostitutes, students in glasses, and IPhone and MP4 are played with relish. During the peak hours, in the crowded subway, there was a bend in the elbow, IPhone moved closer and then played, and some screens were ten centimeters away from the eyes.

Recently, the ophthalmic clinics at the Eye, Otolaryngology and Hospital Affiliated to Fudan University were among the most popular. According to Kong Xiangmei, chief physician of glaucoma and optic nerve disease at the Eye, Ear, Nose and Throat Hospital, reading and playing electronic products in a mobile environment such as subway is a very bad habit.

Many people may not play mobile phones in the car because people will feel dizzy and not continue to watch for a long time, but they will still play electronic products on seemingly stable subways and trains. However, in fact, watching videos and playing games on the subway is even worse than watching cars. Because there is no obvious dizziness symptoms to remind people to stop watching electronic terminal products, people will stare at the screen for a long time without consciously.

Dr. Kong suggested that to reduce the damage to the eyes, it is better to change the habits of the road. Listening to music on the subway and letting your eyes rest, people can also relax. She also reminded that mobile TVs in subway cars can be watched for a short period of time, and staring at them for a long time can also hurt the eyes.

“Delieve a light alone” is the most damaging eye Dong Jie said in a recent microblogging: “Now the children’s proficiency in IPhone really makes me feel happy.” And parents with the same view are more than 10 million.

In colleges and universities, night bedroom is always “starry”, and the “mobile phone light” on the bedside is lit up. This seems to be an indispensable entertainment time for students to go to bed.

Taking a look at the video screen, going up on Weibo, reading novels, and playing games, the increasingly powerful features of the mobile phone have greatly enriched the living conditions of students' families, and they also unconsciously spend more time at bedtime. Moreover, this can also avoid the rest of the classmates from being affected.

In the same way, sometimes in order not to disturb the rest of the classmates, the classmates who play with the computer will also carefully turn off the lights in the bedroom and keep the computer alone to continue playing.

This phenomenon of “one light alone” is particularly harmful to the eyes due to the strong contrast of light. In the same way, when reading books and playing with electronic products in the sun, intense light can also irritate the eyes.

Dr. Kong advised students to avoid reading books and playing with electronic products in the sun. Secondly, the background lighting of electronic products can be adjusted. We can soften the background lighting of electronic products. Beige is A good choice is that the damage to the eyes is relatively small compared to other colors.

The smallest "screen control" is only five or six years old female white-collar worker Carry is connected for three or four months. Every day he spends nearly ten hours playing newly bought iPad. As a result, because of maintaining the same posture for a long time, her fingers are weak. The upper arm must not be lifted and the neck cannot move. To the Shanghai University of Traditional Chinese Medicine Shuguang Hospital X-ray film, suggesting cervical curvature of the anti-bow, intervertebral space narrowing. This case was encountered at the Shuguang Hospital's massage department.

According to the hospital's data, 60% of patients attending the massage department are caused by prolonged use of electronic products. The cases caused by IPad and IPhone accounted for 10%, while the youngest patients were only five or six years old.

Dr. Zhu Guomiao, the attending physician at Shuguang Hospital, called these people inseparable from the electronic screens of computers, mobile phones and televisions as "screen control." The improper use of electronic products for a long period of time made these people susceptible to neck and back pain and even wrist injuries. Tube syndrome, finger tenosynovitis and other diseases.

Since the birth of touch screen mobile phones, various touch screen games have emerged. When she was a student, she was fascinated by the fruit ninja. She worked hard to cut melons during class and rest. Over time, she found that her fingers were numb, unable to act, and the activities were not working. There was a commonly known “slingshot finger”.

This symptom is medically called finger flexion of tenosynovitis. In severe cases, the development will lead to nerve damage, which will cause the finger muscles to shrink.

Everyone may have such experience. Once the mobile phone and the computer play together, they forget the time. The head and the screen unconsciously get closer and closer together. They maintain a position for a long time and they do not move at all.

Dr. Zhu said that modern bad habits can easily lead to compensatory cervical hyperplasia. Cervical hyperplasia can compress the nerve roots, causing pain in the neck and back, pain in the upper extremity, and even limited mobility. In severe cases, people can't take care of themselves. Cervical hyperplasia can also cause compression of the vertebral artery that supplies the occipital region of the brain, causing abnormal blood supply to the occipital region of the brain, headaches, dizziness, and decreased memory.

Long-term forward tilt posture can easily lead to lumbar hyperplasia, and make the posterior longitudinal ligament tension, loss of elasticity, causing lumbar disc herniation, oppression of nerve roots. If the sciatic nerve is oppressed, it can cause pain in the sciatic nerve of the root, with back pain, pain in the lower extremities, and movement disorders.

In the face of such patients, Dr. Zhu in addition to traditional Chinese medicine massage, the most important thing is to exhort patients to stop or reduce the use of their own time, to strengthen the exercise time, so that symptoms will gradually improve. However, the objective reality is that the recovery effect of most patients is not very good because they cannot control themselves and it is difficult to get rid of electronic products. Dr. Zhu reminded that when using electronic products, try to correct posture, do not bow for a long time, and should have appropriate exercise to relax.

Electronic products, how much are a little bit of radiation A British office electromagnetic wave research confirmed that low-frequency radiation and magnetic fields emitted from computer screens can lead to 7 to 19 kinds of diseases, including itchy eyes, back and neck pain, transient loss of memory, irritability and depression. It is also easy for women to have abnormal reproductive function and abnormal embryonic development. According to a computer operator survey of more than 200 banking systems in Wuhan, more than 35% of women have symptoms such as dysmenorrhea and prolonged menstruation, and a small number of women also experience preterm birth or miscarriage.

According to a World Health Organization study, when pregnant women use computers more than 20 hours per week, the incidence of miscarriage increases by more than 80%. At the same time, it may lead to fetal malformations.

The reason that microwaves generated by electronic products harm the human body is that low-energy X-rays and low-frequency electromagnetic radiation of electronic products are likely to cause people's central nervous system disorders, and such damage is very direct.

Quitting the balance of “screen addiction” is critical Young people are full of enthusiasm for trendy and stylish technology products. This is the characteristics of the younger generation. However, indulging in them for a long time, there will be personality anomalies, autistic, and reluctance to communicate with others. Many parents also worry that their children will abandon their studies and have fun.

Ms. Jing Jing, Center of Psychological Consultation and Psychology Development, Shanghai University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, believes that there are several reasons for this behavior: first, to solve the pressure of reality, to vent irritation through playing games; second, some people are right. The escaping of real life and retreat, they choose to face the screen and do not face the problems encountered for the time being; Third, the environment they live in does not provide them with meaningful opportunities for participation; Fourth, it is completely as a kind of Enjoy the way to balance life.

These people's behaviors are fully in line with their inner needs. At the same time, they reflect from one aspect that they lack good planning for life. Therefore, to get rid of the fascination with electronic products, she proposes to divert their attention, discuss with them meaningful opportunities for participation, and provide them with a platform for contact.

Each person's reasonable time to play with electronic products depends on whether they affect other normal things in their personal life. Therefore, there is no precise time for the definition of addiction. The key is to see if a person's psychological needs can reach balance in life.

Distinguish between true and false myopia before deciding whether to wear glasses before the age of 6-7, the vision is in farsightedness, which is normal. After the age of six or seven, this situation will disappear and the eyesight will face squarely. More and more children are now beginning to "go nearsighted" at the age of six or seven. However, Dr. Kong reminded that at this time we must pay attention to distinguish between true myopia and pseudo myopia.

The false result was that the test result was myopic at the time of medical treatment, but the cycloplegic agent was dropped into the eyes to relax the eye muscles. At this time, the visual acuity was normal. During the summer, more than 1,000 children were used to perform pupil dilation tests every day in the ENT hospital.

Dr. Kong said that both children and adults should develop a good reading posture at ordinary times. Whether reading books or playing electronic products, they should maintain a distance of at least 30 cm. The downward inclination of 15-40 degrees is the optimal viewing angle for people.
