Saving young eyes.  China's multifaceted approach to curbing myopia


At a primary school in Jinan, east China's Shandong Province, students are undergoing routine vision checks with the help of an innovative tool, namely a headphone-like smart monitoring device powered by artificial intelligence (AI).


This device collects real-time data concerning students' reading distance, sitting posture, light exposure and screen time, and then generates systematic evaluations and personalized recommendations. This technology not only tracks vision changes but also promotes healthier eye habits.


"This is a dynamic monitoring process that is more objective and direct than traditional questionnaires," said Huo Huanhuan, a doctor with the Shandong Prevention and Control Center for Child and Adolescent Myopia.
