If a child develops myopia, it generally cannot be cured through massage. Depending on the specific case of myopia, if it is pseudo-myopia, it can be cured by massage. However, if it is confirmed as myopia after a dilated eye examination, massage cannot cure it. Once a child has myopia, the degree of myopia can increase by 50-100 degrees per year, so it is essential to control it promptly. After a series of examinations, if the child is suitable for orthokeratology lenses, these lenses should be used as they are the best method to control myopia.
