Grammar

@NottNott: I have made a small edit here, similar to another one I made on another topic - and I think they both come from you. I have changed the vast majority of myopia to most myopia. This was not only on account of what could be seen as an over-exaggeration, but because of a grammatical issue. Majority relates to a number, and myopia is an uncountable noun. So if you wanted to stick to the original formulation you would have to say vast majority of cases of myopia, which sounds a bit clumsy to me. Sorry, I did warn you that a free grammar lesson might ensue (apologetic look). By the way, how do I get to use emoji here? Hannie (talk) 13:48, 31 May 2020 (UTC)
