They noticed that the eyewear industry is currently in a stage of positive development, but also highlighted several challenges. These challenges include the need for standardized import and export customs declaration, improvement in taxation policies, strengthening of training in business administration, and enhancing the management of production and property leasing. The companies expressed their hope that relevant government departments would continue to increase their support for the eyewear industry. Li Fenghua added that the problem of myopia in children is becoming increasingly severe, and he hoped that the government would take the lead in introducing industry standards and policies to prioritize the prevention and control of myopia in children and the field of optometry, ultimately reducing the myopia rate among children.

He also expressed the need for long-term guidance and continuous subsidies for participating in group exhibitions.
