【 Visits Google Hong Kong: Exploring AI in Optometry and Eye Care🧐】

Students from the MSc in Vision Science and Innovation (MScVSI) programme visited Google Hong Kong as part of the SO5003 Entrepreneurship in the Ophthalmic Industry course. 💻✨

They joined an insightful sharing session with Michael, a Google Cloud Strategic Advisor, and explored how Generative AI and Agentic AI are transforming healthcare and eye care. This visit not only extended learning beyond the traditional classroom setting but also inspired students to think differently about technology, healthcare and eye care:

💡 From traditional rule-based systems to Generative AI and Agentic AI, students explored the potential of artificial intelligence in healthcare and eye care, as well as its far-reaching impact on productivity.
💡 Amid the rapid evolution of technology, students considered how optometry professionals can adapt their thinking, leverage cutting-edge tools to work more efficiently with literature and projects, and become AI orchestrators who help drive the development of the profession.
💡 Building an “unfair advantage” and cultivating the ability for just-in-time learning are essential skills for navigating an ever-changing future.

We look forward to more diverse and enriching learning experiences in the upcoming classes! 🌐✨

📢【寶寶眼睛明亮的秘密?原來與媽媽的營養攝取息息相關!】

不少家長帶小朋友接受眼睛檢查時,或會有這個疑問:「看不清楚,配一副眼鏡不就可以了嗎?」

其實,視力健康發展比想像中複雜。除了眼睛結構及屈光度數,雙眼的協調能力同樣重要,而均衡營養亦是支持寶寶視覺發展的關鍵之一。今天就和大家分享,母乳如何為寶寶的眼睛健康加分。

💡 母乳中的「護眼營養」

母乳含有多種重要營養素,包括葉黃素、玉米黃素、維生素A及DHA,有助寶寶的視網膜及視覺神經發育:

🔸 葉黃素及玉米黃素
具抗氧化作用,有助保護眼睛;初乳中的含量亦相對豐富。

🔸 維生素A
是維持正常視覺功能的重要營養素,有助寶寶適應不同光線環境。

🔸 DHA
有助視網膜、腦部及神經系統發育,對早產兒的早期視覺發展尤其重要。

🔬 研究發現:母乳餵哺的寶寶立體視覺較佳?
有研究比較母乳餵哺及配方奶餵哺的幼兒,發現約三歲半至六歲、曾接受母乳餵哺的兒童,立體視覺(即深度感知能力)表現或較佳。良好的立體視覺有助日常活動,例如行走、上下樓梯及拋接球等。
雖然,目前研究尚未證實母乳餵哺與預防近視有直接關係。可以肯定的是,媽媽的飲食及營養攝取,會影響母乳中的營養成分;均衡飲食有助為寶寶提供更全面的營養支持。
除了均衡營養,定期接受眼睛檢查亦同樣重要。母乳中的天然營養素,是媽媽送給寶寶的一份珍貴禮物。各位媽媽辛苦了,記得為自己點個讚!❤️

📢 The Secret to Bright, Healthy Eyes in Babies? It May Be Linked to Their Mother’s Nutritional Intake!
Many parents who bring their children for eye examinations may wonder: “If my child cannot see clearly, wouldn’t a pair of glasses solve the problem?”

In fact, healthy visual development is more complex than it may seem. In addition to the structure of the eyes and refractive error, coordination between the two eyes is also important. A balanced diet is another key factor in supporting a baby’s visual development. Today, let’s explore how breastfeeding may benefit your baby’s eye health.

💡 Key nutrients in breast milk
🔸 Lutein and zeaxanthin – Provide antioxidant protection; colostrum is particularly rich in these nutrients.
🔸 Vitamin A – Supports normal vision and adaptation to different lighting conditions.
🔸 DHA – Supports the development of the retina, brain and nervous system, especially in premature babies.

🔬 What does research suggest?
Some studies suggest that breastfed children may have better depth perception. However, there is currently no conclusive evidence that breastfeeding directly prevents myopia.

A balanced maternal diet can help support the nutritional quality of breast milk. Regular eye examinations are also important for monitoring your baby’s visual development.
