Introduced into the Vietnamese market since 2014, posture correctors, anti-myopia lamps, leak-proof pencil cases, odorless wax, dust-free powder, and more are flooding the market, causing many parents to doubt their true effects.
In reality, wearing posture correctors still results in poor posture, using anti-myopia lamps still leads to myopia, and using odorless wax and dust-free powder still harms health.
Posture correctors, anti-myopia lamps, leak-proof pencil cases, odorless wax, dust-free powder, and more are just 'self-proclaimed' solutions.
Dust-free powder and odorless wax may not fully live up to their names, but they contribute to reducing health hazards compared to older versions like dusty powder and wax with scent. However, posture correctors and anti-myopia lamps are the most concerning newcomers.
The back support bag originates from a Japanese-style bag, featuring a square design, waterproof leather material, and a back pad designed to fit the posture of elementary school students, aiming to limit issues regarding spinal curvature. However, this type of bag is very selective due to two reasons: not every body shape fits well with its back panel, and not every parent has a budget of 1.5 - 3 million dong to buy a posture corrector for their child.
Out of curiosity, most parents inquire at stores to buy posture correctors to see what they are like for 3 million dong, but if they are not available, they won't buy. If they are quoted a price, they still won't buy, so store owners hang signs advertising posture correctors to attract customers, then persuade them to buy ultra-lightweight bags or other bags with affordable prices that suit their budget better. This is the shared experience of some bag store owners on the streets of Hanoi.
Holding an anti-myopia lamp in hand, customers cannot distinguish what makes it different from normal desk lamps or study lamps. Perhaps only the words of the salesperson. When asked about the difference between the anti-myopia lamp and other normal lamps, the salesperson also answered vaguely, even with the intention of sarcastically driving away customers who don't want to buy anymore with the implication of 'buying a lamp for a couple hundred dong and still asking so many questions'.
In reality: Wearing posture correctors still results in poor posture, using anti-myopia lamps still leads to myopia, so why?
Perhaps you're just blindly believing in the words of posture corrector sellers, anti-myopia lamp sellers, or perhaps you believe that posture correctors, anti-myopia lamps can help your child get rid of poor posture, get rid of myopia, then you're mistaken.
In reality, there's no evidence published about anti-myopia lamps yet, and the Japanese-designed posture corrector only has a limiting effect rather than wearing it and your child won't have poor posture anymore. Whether your child has poor posture or myopia depends on the child and the parents themselves. If the child sits incorrectly when studying, the distance from the eyes to the book is incorrect, watches TV and uses phones too much,... even if using an anti-myopia lamp, they will still get myopia as usual. According to the standards, an average elementary school student weighing 25 - 35kg should only carry a lightweight bag with books weighing about 2-3kg, but children usually have to carry more books and study materials weighing about 4-5kg, which affects the child's spinal column, not to mention the child's posture is not straight, then even if parents buy genuine Japanese posture correctors, the child will still have poor posture.
Be a savvy consumer before making your shopping choices.
Despite knowing the two arguments from Mytour.vn, parents still buy out of trust and hope, so parents need to be savvy consumers before their shopping choices by:
- Shop for posture correctors, anti-myopia lamps, etc., at reputable and trustworthy addresses.
- Choose suitable types of bags for children according to their age, lightweight with many convenient compartments, etc.
- Whether the light is white or yellow is not important for children's eyes, but it affects their emotions, so parents should choose a suitable light for their children, avoiding overly bright lights that can tire children's eyes and make them tearful.
- Before buying student bags or desk lamps, study lamps, etc., you should also compare prices at all places selling school supplies on the Mytour.vn information gateway to always find the cheapest and best prices before shopping!

We hope that the information provided by Mytour.vn above will be helpful to you in choosing and purchasing study tools for your children before the new school term.
