Our hospital's policy on patient harassment

Nagoya Eye Clinic (hereinafter referred to as "our clinic") strives to provide the best medical services by treating patients and their families sincerely and in response to their trust and expectations. However, some patients and their families who receive treatment, or those related to them, make demands that go beyond the bounds of common sense, or engage in verbal or physical actions that deny the dignity of our staff, violence, sexual harassment, etc., which are serious problems that lead to a deterioration of the work environment and clinical environment (these verbal and physical actions of patients and their families are called "pay harassment"). Our clinic will not tolerate pay harassment, and will take a firm stance against these nuisances in order to respect and protect the human rights of not only our staff, but also other patients and their families.

Doctor's Column

[Dr. Yamazaki] Playing outside can help slow the progression of myopia!

Even though it was so hot, it has cooled down considerably and it is now a good season to go outside.
In my family, we try to take our children to the park on weekends if possible, as this helps to prevent them from developing myopia.
Some people may wonder why we need to take measures to prevent myopia, but there is data that shows that spending more time outdoors reduces the prevalence and incidence of myopia.
As for what suppresses myopia, it is said that the violet light contained in sunlight, which is visible light with a wavelength of 360-400 nm, may be effective in suppressing myopia.
In countries such as Singapore, which is a leader in myopia prevention, outdoor activities for children are promoted nationwide.
It's said to be particularly effective for children before they enter elementary school. It doesn't cost any money, children are happy, and it's the easiest measure to adopt.
I bought a book about parks and went to various parks, but my recent recommendation is the grass field at Gifu Family Park!
Even adults were soothed by the beautiful, spacious lawn, which is not found in the vicinity of Nagoya.
By the way, adults who are always concerned about UV rays have the added bonus of increasing their Vitamin D!
There is a paper that states that 98% of Japanese people are deficient in Vitamin D, so I am enduring this tan, thinking that it must be doing some good.
Playing in the park is a great way to prevent your child's myopia and also promote your own health, so why not go out and enjoy it during this pleasant season?
