Topics
Andrew Huberman: 本期节目涵盖了视觉和眼睛健康的方方面面,包括矫正镜片的优缺点、阳光的益处和危害、各种维持和改善视力的方法(行为疗法、手术等)、干眼症的治疗、营养和补充方法等。 本节目旨在为不同年龄和背景的听众提供维护眼睛健康和延缓视力下降的工具。 节目中还讨论了与年龄相关的眼部疾病,例如白内障、青光眼、黄斑变性和糖尿病视网膜病变,以及用于促进眼睛健康的各种方法(行为疗法、补充疗法、处方药和手术)。 Jeffrey Goldberg: 儿童眼科检查应尽早进行,定期进行眼科检查。正常视力并不意味着视力最佳。新生儿眼科检查主要筛查红光反射,缺乏红光反射可能提示眼部疾病。除非婴儿出现某些症状(例如,不进行眼神接触、斜视等),否则在婴儿期和幼儿期,除了常规体检中的红光反射检查外,不需要进行额外的眼科检查。学龄儿童眼科检查主要筛查弱视(一只眼睛视力较差)和斜视(眼睛没有对齐)。早期纠正儿童眼部错位非常重要,即使在青春期或更晚的时候发现问题,也值得尝试进行矫正。长时间近距离用眼可能会导致儿童近视,户外活动和全光谱光照对预防近视可能比近距离用眼时间更重要。近距离用眼时间过长可能会导致近视,但户外光照时间可能比近距离用眼时间更重要。让孩子多进行户外活动,有助于预防近视。老年人户外活动和全光谱光照对眼睛健康有益,但对近视的影响可能较小。眼睛安全非常重要,应避免眼睛创伤。眼睛通常是自清洁的,但应注意眼睑和睫毛的清洁。40岁左右的人通常需要老花镜。使用老花镜可能会加速对老花镜的依赖,但清晰的视觉信号对视网膜和大脑有益。应该使用最适合自己的眼镜,享受最佳视力。夜间驾驶会对视觉系统造成很大的压力。在较暗的光线下,即使轻微的视力模糊也可能更明显。眼内肌和眼外肌的功能不同,矫正镜片对它们的影响也不同。近远距离练习对眼睛健康有益,但对预防近视和老花眼的效果尚不明确。近远距离练习和追踪练习对眼睛健康有益,并可用于治疗某些眼部疾病,例如脑震荡后的康复。近远距离练习和追踪练习对眼睛健康有益,但效果因人而异。研究人员正在研究如何将正常的视力提升到超常的视力。

Deep Dive

Chapters
This chapter discusses the importance of early eye exams in children, focusing on the detection of eye misalignment and nearsightedness. It addresses the critical period for correcting eye misalignment and the impact of early intervention on vision recovery. The role of environmental factors, such as near-work activities and sunlight exposure, on myopia development is also discussed.
  • Every baby should have an eye exam, primarily checking for a red reflex.
  • Eye misalignment should be corrected early to prevent permanent vision loss.
  • Limited vision at close range can lead to myopia.
  • Early detection and correction of eye problems are crucial for optimal vision development.

Shownotes Transcript

In this episode, my guest is Jeffrey Goldberg, MD, PhD), professor and chair of the department of ophthalmology at the Byers Eye Institute at Stanford University. His clinical and research efforts focus on retinal and optic nerve diseases such as glaucoma and discovering stem cell and nanotechnology treatments to cure blindness. We discuss how to maintain and improve eye health throughout life, the advantages and disadvantages of corrective lenses, including if you should wear “readers,” the use and risks of contact lenses, considerations for LASIK eye surgery, floaters, dry eye, the importance of sunlight and UV protection and specific exercises to improve eye and vision health. Dr. Goldberg also explains age-related conditions: cataracts, glaucoma, macular degeneration and diabetic retinopathy; and the behavioral and supplementation-based, prescription and surgical tools used to promote eye health. This episode provides essential tools for listeners of any age and background to maintain eye health and offset vision loss.
