Abstract

Abstract:

The prevention and treatment of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-2019) hasreached the critical period in China. Staying at home is an effective way to control transmission.In order to reduce cross-infection on campus, the Ministry of Education issued a notice to delay school start. Primary and secondary schools have carried out online teaching and online learning activities. At the same time, children may spend more time on online learning and lack of outdoor activitieswhile at home. Thus, this will have a new impact on children′ eye health and increase the risk of myopia onset and development. This article provides guidance for scientific eye protection of eye health and prevention and control of myopia based on eye habits and learning patterns of children at home.

Key words: Online classes, Adolescents, COVID-2019
