learn art as early as possible. When the children were young, many parents were keen to enroll their children in interest classes, and piano was one of them. Z2z
studies have shown that children who start learning piano at an early age are significantly higher than ordinary children in terms of comprehension, acceptance, imagination and creative thinking after entering school.
But recently, Kitty heard a very interesting saying, "Ten piano children and nine myopia, children who practice piano are very nearsighted."
Is this true?

In a certain program, the genius pianist Lang Lang once admitted that the degrees of his eyes add up to more than 1500 degrees, and that the "culprit" of myopia is playing the piano. In addition to Lang Lang, there are many celebrities who have myopia due to playing the piano, such as Beethoven and Li Yundi, which are familiar to all, have varying degrees of myopia.
Many " vision " seem to prove that children who start learning piano at a young age are really nearsighted than ordinary children.
However, Kitty would like to tell everyone after verifying the experts, from the point of view of pathology statistics, there is no direct connection between and between playing the piano and myopia!
After all, you play the piano with your hands, not your eyes. With a move of your finger, how can your eyes become nearsighted?

The " culprit " that really causes myopia in playing the piano is actually the excessive eye use and wrong eye use habits in the process of playing the piano. The black and white keys of the
piano have a large color contrast, and the visual stimulation will be greater. For piano learners, if you practice piano a little longer, your eyes will get tired easily.
piano practice needs to look at piano score , and the characters on the staff are relatively small, and the people who practice piano seem to be struggling, plus the time to practice piano is longer, and the number of continuous practice is more , Staring at the staff for a long time is more likely to cause eye fatigue.
Without rested eyes, it is very easy to get tired and get sick.

In addition, 0-6 years old, this period happens to be the golden period of children's eye development. Newborn children have short eye axes and weak eyesight, and their eyes are hyperopic. By 3-4 years of age, there will generally be 200 degrees of physiological hyperopia. With age, physical development, and eye axis growth, the child's vision gradually becomes normal.
Parents guide their children to practice piano prematurely, which can easily consume children's hyperopia reserve and accelerate the development of children's eyes.
After the child's eyes reach face-up earlier than the average child, the intense eye use and wrong eye use habits brought by playing the piano and reading the music score will cause a large proportion of myopia.
"Ten piano boys and nine myopia" is not unreasonable.

Xie Peiying, director of the Optometry Research Center of Peking University Health Science Center, said: “Playing the piano itself is a good thing. It can cultivate sentiment and develop intelligence. Although children playing the piano have a higher rate of myopia than ordinary children, playing the piano itself and myopia are If there is no direct contact, parents can help the child prevent and control myopia while playing the piano.”
Beijing Children’s Hospital Ophthalmology Director Yu Gang played for the child when he gave an expert lecture on “Healthy Road” on CCTV The piano mothers came up with some " ideas " to help children use their eyes scientifically in the process of playing the piano to prevent myopia. We together look!
1. Take your children to check their eyesight and visual function regularly, and establish visual refractive files.
2, configure an adjustable seat for children playing the piano at a young age.
3. Reduce the one-hour piano playing time to two 25 minutes with a 10-minute rest.
4. Enlarge the child's staff.
5. Try to practice the piano during the day as much as possible, and control the child's practice time.
6. Auxiliary lights can be added to the side of the piano.
7. Children who have myopia should wear myopia glasses to play the piano.
8. Encourage children to go for a walk and do some outdoor sports.
