Abstract
Communication is one of the primary needs of young people, since technological evolution has generated the creation of devices such as smart mobile phones in order to entertain, communicate, and generate access to different sources of information. Most university students have a smart mobile device that they use in all their daily activities. The overuse of these smartphones can produce general and ocular symptoms.
