Resümee

Myopia is a significant global health issue, and its exact causes are still not fully understood, leaving a lack of effective and propaqable treatment options. The prevalence of myopia among children and adolescents in China remains high, posing challenges for prevention and control efforts. According to the " theory of imbalance of essence and tendon", an imbalance in the essential elements and tendons can impede the passage of eye essence and blood, resulting in delayed expansion and contraction of the eye meridians and tendons, leading to blurred vision. Modern research indicates that during the development of myopia, there are notable changes in the microstructure, activation range, and signaling of various brain regions, providing a biological basis for the " brain-eye" mechanism. Moreover, abnormal activity in the brain nucleus contributes to alterations in choroid blood flow and the impairment of eye muscle regulation, thereby accelerating the progression of myopia, this phenomenon represents the manifestation of the brain-eye imbalance. Consequently, strategies for myopia prevention and control should prioritize nourishing kidney essence, replenishing brain marrow, promoting liver and blood health, and softening the meridians. These measures aim to optimize the functioning of the brain and eyes, maintain the flexibility of eye tendons, enhance eye regulation, sustain the strength of eye tendons, and delay the advancement of eye axis growth and myopia. By enriching the scientific understanding of the appropriate application of traditional Chinese medicine techniques to prevent and control myopia through the brain, this research provides valuable insights for future explorations in this field.
