Implementing health promotion actions in primary and secondary schools has become one of the special actions of Healthy China Action 15, including that by 2022 and 2030, the excellent and good rate of students' physical health standards will reach 50% and above and 60% and above respectively, and the overall myopia rate of children and adolescents nationwide will be reduced by more than 0.5 percentage points every year, and the rate of new myopia will be significantly reduced.
The State Council's Opinions on Implementing Healthy China Action also proposes to establish a performance evaluation mechanism and strengthen the implementation responsibilities of local party committees, governments and relevant departments. Every year, the people's governments of all provinces (autonomous regions and municipalities directly under the Central Government) will also carry out appraisal on the prevention and control of myopia among children and adolescents. It is necessary to incorporate the visual health of children and adolescents into the assessment indicators of individuals and units, clearly stipulate the corresponding reward and punishment measures, and hold individuals and units that do not meet the requirements accountable.

Methods of protecting eyesight
1, good closing posture
Close eye posture is another factor that affects the incidence of myopia. Bad habits such as riding in a car, lying in bed and reading at a desk will increase the frequency and range of eye adjustment and should be avoided as far as possible.
When using eyes at close range, it is best to rest, sit up straight, and put books about 30cm away from your eyes. If you are watching TV, the distance from the TV is more than 6 times the diagonal of the TV.
2. Shorten the time of using eyes at close range.
In addition to pathological factors, most students' vision decline is the decline of eye mediation function. Using eyes at close range for a long time under the condition of poor ambient light is more likely to lead to the decline of eye accommodation function, which in turn leads to the decline of vision, and should be avoided as far as possible. When using eyes at close range, rest every 45 ~ 60 minutes 10 ~ 15 minutes.
Step 3 increase outdoor activities
Doing more outdoor activities/exercises will not only promote blood circulation in the eyes, but also help to relax the muscles/nerves in the eyes, which is self-evident for protecting eyesight.
