Children tend to fall when walking, are afraid of walking up stairs, and never catch the ball when playing with other children. Many parents may think that their children are timid and are just "stupid" than others in sports. They will get better when they get older. It's nothing

It is easy for children to walk and fall . They are afraid of walking up stairs, and they always fail to catch the ball when playing with children. Many parents may think that their children are timid and are "stupid" than others in sports. When they get older, they will be better. OK, no big problem.

In fact, this is not the case. If a child has a similar situation, it is probably caused by a problem with the " stereoscopic " function of the eyes. It really cannot be taken seriously!

What is stereopsis?

Stereopsis is the ability of the visual organ to distinguish and perceive the distance, depth and height of surrounding objects in three-dimensional space. It is an independent advanced binocular vision function based on the simultaneous vision and fusion functions of both eyes.

The formation of stereoscopic vision is when the eyes are in a balanced state, the images seen from different angles of the eyes are merged into one image by the brain, and the feeling of three-dimensional space is obtained, thus giving the object a three-dimensional sense.

Children's strabismus, amblyopia, affect stereoscopic vision function

Newborn babies do not have stereoscopic vision. They begin to establish stereoscopic vision by four months. The average person's stereoscopic vision is basically fully developed before the age of 6.

Since babies do not have the function of binocular fusion, visual function requires the eyes to constantly receive repeated stimulation from clear objects from the outside world to promote development and perfection.

If a child has strabismus, amblyopia and other influencing factors during the period of visual development, the two eyes cannot look at an object at the same time, so both eyes cannot work at the same time, affecting the formation of stereoscopic vision.

Abnormal development of stereopsis has a great impact on children's life, study and even future career choices

Stereoplasty penetrates into every aspect of our life, study and work. For children who are in the growth and development stage, abnormal development of stereopsis seriously affects the children's daily life. Study:

Children may be affected by limb depth perception

causing them to fall easily when walking, afraid to walk on potholes, afraid of stairs, and unable to feel 3D movies.

It may affect ball sports

basketball, badminton, table tennis, etc. In severe cases, Movement disorders, unable to walk on the balance beam, unable to flexibly catch the ball or hit the ball

It has many restrictions on future career choices

Because it affects the judgment of the front and rear distances between objects, it cannot be engaged in fine control work, such as surgery and mechanical control. , driving, painting, etc.

If a child has poor stereoscopic vision, it often means that his eyes have other eye diseases.

As a parent, you need to pay more attention to your children's daily eye use. Strabismus and amblyopia are eye diseases that seriously endanger children's visual function. The key to treatment lies in the word "early". The younger the age, the earlier the discovery, and the more timely it is. Treatment can better restore the child's visual function.
