A myopia epidemic is sweeping the globe. Here’s how to stop it
https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-024-01518-2
The prevalence of myopia is increasing rapidly, with projections indicating that by 2050, around half of the global population could be affected. This surge is largely attributed to lifestyle changes, such as increased time spent indoors and on screens, and decreased outdoor activities, starting with the Covid lock down.
To combat this epidemic, researchers are advocating for more outdoor exposure for children, as natural light is beneficial in slowing the progression of myopia. They also emphasize the importance of regular eye check-ups and early interventions. Additionally, innovative treatments such as specially designed contact lenses and low-dose atropine eye drops are being explored to manage and reduce the progression of myopia.

IES profiles are useful for creating life-like lighting, as they can represent the physical distribution of light from any light source.
The IES format was created by the Illumination Engineering Society, and most lighting manufacturers provide IES profile for the lights they manufacture.
