Resumen
La miopía es considera un error refractivo que afecta la salud visual en el
individuo. Garantizar la salud visual constituye una de las prioridades del
Ministerio de Salud, ya que conocer todo lo concerniente a la visión y al propio
ojo son elementos que garantizan la no existencia de enfermedades que lo
afecten. Es por ello que en presente trabajo se pretende abordar los elementos
científicos que permitir definir la miopía y como ésta incide en la salud visual de
los individuos. La importancia de esta investigación está centrada en demostrar
la incidencia que tiene la miopía como error refractivo que afecta la visión en
adolescentes, siendo esta una edad en que se evidencian múltiples cambios y
traen consecuencias negativas cuando no se diagnostica y se trata a tiempo.

el momento en que comienza a manifestarse con sus primeros síntomas. La
presente investigación se realizó en la Unidad Educativa Fiscal Provincial del
Cañar del cantón Durán con adolescentes de 12 a 15 años. La metodología
que se implementó fue de revisión bibliográfica y documental, además de la
observación científica y la encuesta con su guía y cuestionario previamente
