ABSTRACT: Myopia is a highly prevalent refractive error, which develops rapidly in children and adolescents. Children’s myopia is not a common problem and has gradually evolved into a global problem. It is particularly prominent in China. According to the statistics of the Ministry of health, China’s youth myopia rate ranks first in the world. The wide spread of myopia has become a medical problem, but it has also become one of the problems that seriously endanger Chinese public health. In the past decade, studies on myopia in children and adolescents have shown that increasing homework and reducing physical activity are the main risk factors for myopia in children and adolescents. A large number of experiments show that children and adolescents can effectively reduce the incidence rate of myopia through certain exercises. The main reason is that reducing close work and sunlight exposure will increase the synthesis of dopamine, which can prevent the occurrence of myopia. It is an important guarantee for young people to keep their eyesight healthy in their daily study and life. However, the age of young people’s myopia is getting younger and more common, which seriously affects the development of young people and society. This paper starts with the correlation between the concepts of physical exercise and myopia and teenagers’ approximation, discusses the influence of physical exercise on improving teenagers’ approximation, and puts forward some specific causes of myopia harm and induction, analyzes the situation of myopia and exercise of teenagers in China at the present stage, and finally explains the correlation between exercise and myopia and summarizes it. It is hoped that society can pay attention to the importance of exercise and exercise can effectively alleviate the process of teenagers’ approximation, Promote the healthy growth of teenagers.
