Dont forget that it is a lot easier to have eye checkups nowadays and therefore theres a lot more diagnosis of these problems.

Myopia and presbyopia are mostly caused by the shape of the eyes, so that the lenses in your eyes cant project the image correctly on your retina = blurred vision. So blue lights as mentionned by some are not really the problem
