Refractive Power Test
The eye’s refractive power refers to how much light is bent as it passes through the cornea and lens of the eye. If there is no abnormality in refractive power, light focuses accurately on the retina, allowing clear and sharp vision. Importance of Refraction Testing A refraction test is an examination that precisely measures the lens power needed for vision correction by analyzing the radius of curvature of the cornea. It is an important process for determining whether there are any vision abnormalities by assessing how light is refracted in the patient’s eye. During this examination, the degree of refraction in the cornea and lens is measured accurately to diagnose refractive errors such as myopia, hyperopia, and astigmatism. In addition, it helps provide accurate, personalized vision correction not only for refractive surgery but also when prescribing glasses or contact lenses.
