Lyudmila Iosifovna, hello. To my grand daughter 6, 5 months, today have diagnosed a myopia, the right eye + 6, left + 5, 5. Tell or say how much or as far as it dangerously, what it is necessary to do or make, whether it is treated? Thanks.

Dear Tatyana,
At your grand daughter not a myopia, and a hyperopia (hypermetropia). All children at a birth have a hyperopia up to 3 diopters. By first year of a life "pluss" gradually decrease. At your girl a hyperopia above age norms or rates. It is fraught with development of a strabismus and an amblyopia (depression of vision). Observation and treatment Is necessary. It will be possible to tell or say about tactics of conducting and treatment of your grand daughter after survey (it is necessary to expand pupils to define or determine a refraction on a wide pupil, etc.) in more detail.
