According to relevant data, myopia is closely related to eating habits. If the diet is too sweet, too refined and too soft for a long time, it may aggravate the degree of myopia. Eating too sweet will consume a lot of vitamin B 1 in the body, which will lead to the decrease of calcium in the body and the weakening of the elasticity of the eyeball wall, which will lead to the aggravation of myopia or induce myopia.

Eating too much for a long time is easy to make the body lack chromium, make the lens bulge, increase diopter and induce myopia; Eating too soft will also affect your eyesight. Eating too little hard food is also one of the reasons for the increase of myopia among teenagers. Chewing is considered as a special "eye exercise". Therefore, we should eat more carrots, soybeans, fruits and other hard foods that need to be chewed.
