The "global pandemic" of myopia
According to the World Health Organization (WHO), myopia is a "global pandemic". Today 30% of the world's population is myopic and, if the trend continues, by 2050 almost 50% will be: around 5 billion people.
In China, in just 30 years, childhood myopia rose from 30% to over 80%. Unless urgent measures are taken, the same will happen in Europe.
