Description

Many people have been told they have a refractive problem by their eye care professional and may not have clearly understood what this meant. The word refraction is used to describe the way light is bent or altered as it is focused by your eyes. Refraction depends on three elements of the eye; the curvature of the eye, the power of Normal Vision and the lens and the length of the eye. If your eyes are structured properly, then light will focus properly on the retina. If these elements are not structured correctly then light will focus either in front of, or behind the retina. These irregularities are often due to the front surface of the eye being too flat, too steep or uneven causing the common refractive problems nearsightedness, farsightedness and astigmatism.
