South America

The prevalence of myopia in Brazil27 is similar to that of Europe, with 3.8% in those under 5-years of age and 29.7% in those ranging from 30-to 39-years of age. In Los Angeles Latinos, it is 16.8% in those aged 40 years and above, although this may not be a perfect comparison group as only some Latinos in Los Angeles are first generation immigrants.28 We will assume an overall estimate of population prevalence of myopia in South America of 21%.

Bangladesh

The prevalence of myopia was 22.1% in the over 30-year-olds.29 We will assume that this is the population prevalence of myopia for the purposes of our estimate.
