Myopia— most commonly known as shortsightedness, it is a very common eye condition and can affect 1 in 3 people, it makes it difficult to see things clearly in the distance, like road signs, the TV or a classroom whiteboard. It’s becoming more common, especially among children and teenagers, and now affects up to 40% of people by the age of 17.
