Over 250 degrees, then consider wearing glasses
However, do all myopic runners urgently need to solve this problem? Not necessarily.
I think that if your myopia is low (not more than 250 degrees), then running without any glasses under normal circumstances is not a big problem. If your myopia degree exceeds 250 degrees, or even a high degree of myopia above 600 degrees, you are strongly recommended to choose a solution that suits you. Because people with high myopia are running, if an accident happens, they will step on a rocky foot, or...Well, I can only say that this is like driving while drunk and can’t even walk in a straight line. Can you still run?
So after talking for a long time, when myopia patients (above 250 degrees) fall in love with running and want to wear sunglasses, what should I do?
Contact lens + sunglasses
Wearing contact lenses + sunglasses during exercise is currently the most common solution in the running circle. Without the shackles of the frame, the movement is free, and our eyes instantly turn back to the clearness of childhood. Mr. Courage himself and many elite runners choose this method.
Wearing contact lenses when swimming and bathing, if you are a novice, it is easy to get the glasses in contact with water and get infected. For contact lenses, water is not pure, only care solutions and contact lenses are a perfect match. Mr. Courage had used pure water to maintain contact lenses, and when he wore it the next day, he cried with discomfort. .
Myopia + sunglasses clip.
The cost of the clip is very low and it is very convenient to use. But how effective is it in intense oxygen exercise like running? Haha~
A runner with high myopia (no glasses required for low-level), the lens itself is already very heavy, and a layer of clip device that does not know the quality is added, so the weight ratio of the lens frame and the temples is seriously imbalanced, which eventually leads to Top-heavy, the glasses fall easily.
Myopia Correction Surgery
At present, the more mature vision correction surgery method that is generally applicable in the medical field is LASIK (laser in situ refractive keratomileusis), and LASEK (excimer laser subepithelial keratomileusis) developed on this basis, according to The actual situation of the patient’s eyeballs, such as TK surgery, tailored solutions, can help you say goodbye to myopia.
Bryon Powell, editor-in-chief of the famous trail running website Irunfar, corrected myopia through LASIK surgery in 2010 and published an article "Review of Trail Running" to celebrate his "upgrade". In the article, he described in detail the difficulties he encountered while running with glasses in the past 10 years, and finally decided to treat his myopia through surgery. After the end of the 2011 West 100, he said: "I really struggled for a long time before I made up my mind whether or not to have myopia surgery... Now I finally don't have to choose between myopia and sunglasses."
