Proper eye usage and dietary adjustments are necessary. Patients should generally not engage in near-work for more than 45 to 50 minutes at a time. At the same time, minimize the use of electronic devices. Pay attention to balanced nutrition and consume more foods rich in vitamin C, vitamin A, and vitamin E. It is also important to reduce academic or workloads to allow the eyes sufficient rest, thus preventing the development of myopia.
