On March 30, the Ministry of Education issued the National Comprehensive Work Plan for the Prevention and Control of myopia in Children and Adolescents (hereinafter referred to as the Plan).

Compared with last year's myopia prevention and control plan to emphasize the improvement of the eye environment, in 2022, the focus on prevention and monitoring, implementing vision monitoring and recording in the electronic visual health file of children and adolescents mentioned a very high position, and the number of science popularization requirements for eye care also increased a lot. Under the influence of the policy, the awareness of myopia prevention and control of the whole society will become stronger.

At the same time, universities are encouraged to offer optometry and optometry majors to train professionals in myopia prevention and control and vision health management; the Plan also emphasizes the role of TCM in prevention and control of myopia, promote the prevention and control of appropriate TCM technologies, and carry out evidence-based medical evidence research on the effectiveness and safety of prevention and control of drug myopia prevention and control. Atropine eye drops may be expected to come out into the country.

Since 2016, national policies have begun to emphasize eye health in children and adolescents. In 2018, the Implementation Plan for Comprehensive Prevention and Control of Myopia in Children and Adolescents proposed two major myopia rate control targets to be achieved by 2030; in 2021, the "Prevention and Control in Children and Adolescents" was launched. Eye health of children and adolescents has long risen to the level of national strategy.

As the prevention and control of myopia in children and adolescents needs continuous tracking and medical services, the primary medical institutions are the best objects to undertake. In recent years, the optometry clinic also appears like bamboo shoots after a spring rain, developing rapidly.

Plus beauty thinks, although the policy environment for optometry industry is very good, but for many optical services, this is the need to alert, not just rely on the existing OK mirror with service, appropriate technology of traditional Chinese medicine and myopia drug hole has been more open, to embrace change, actively looking for a new development curve.
