After reading the paragraph below, answer the questions that follow.

Myopia can be corrected with artificial lenses or surgery and is generally regarded as a benign disorder. However, as myopia is also associated with more severe conditions such as cataracts and glaucoma, a change in the prevalence of myopia (proportion of the population with myopia) may be a public health concern. The graph shows the change in the prevalence of myopia in three major ethnic groups in Singapore at three points in time.

What anatomical changes do you expect to accompany the change in prevalence of myopia?
◦ a greater proportion of the population with longer-than-normal eyeballs
◦ a greater proportion of the population with misshapen corneas
◦ a greater proportion of the population with abnormally high pressure in their eyes
◦ a greater proportion of the population with difficulty focusing on close objects
