Night Time Contact Lenses Stop Children Becoming Short-sighted
近视眼有治啦!让孩子一夜告别近视
Children could be cured of short-sightedness by wearing soft contact lenses at night which re-shape their eyes to prevent them ever needing glasses, a study has shown.
一项研究显示，夜间佩戴一种特殊的隐形眼镜，可以重塑儿童的视力，帮助近视儿童恢复视力，从而告别眼镜。
Trials involving more than 300 children in Britain and across the world showed that the lenses can stop the eye becoming misshapen which leads to myopia.
这项由全球300名儿童参与的研究表明，镜片可以有效地预防眼睛畸形，避免孩子近视。
In April, a study published by Ulster University found that the rate of short-sightedness in Britain has doubled over the past 50 years, because children no longer spend enough time outdoors.
英国阿尔斯特大学4月份发表的数据显示：近50年来，英国人的近视率翻了一番，因为孩子们很少花充足的时间呆在户外。
Twenty-three per cent of British 12 and 13-year-olds now suffer from myopia which causes distant objects to appear blurred, while close objects can be seen clearly - compared to 10 per cent in the 1960s.
23%的英国12-13岁孩子患近视，而在上世纪60年代，这个数字仅为10%。
However a new study has found that contact lenses can stop the progression of myopia, a practice known as Orthokeratology.
然而一项新的研究发现，这项被称为角膜矫正术的隐形眼镜可以有效避免儿童近视。
