Experts warn that half of the world’s population will have myopia by 2050 .
This condition is a common disorder of visual focus due to an enlargement of the eye.
In countries such as China , South Korea , Japan and Singapore , around 80% of children who finish secondary education suffer from this visual defect.
Myopia is usually detected in childhood and can increase until adulthood, around the age of 22 .
Ophthalmologists are especially concerned about the rise of cases of more severe myopia, which can lead to an increased risk of more complex optical pathologies.
The only effective thing is to do more outdoor activities while reducing near tasks, says Alarcón .
