Refraction is a test that optometrists and ophthalmologist use to measure a person's refractive error. a refractive error is when your eye does not bend light coming into your eye properly as it passes through the cornea, the crystalline lens and fluid media to come to a sharp, clear focus onto your retina.
Light refracts whenever it travels at an angle into a substance with a different refractive index (optical density). This change of direction is caused by a change in speed. For example, when light travels from air into water, it slows down, causing it to continue to travel at a different angle or direction.ideo: Refraction. Refraction is the bending of light (it also happens with sound, water and other waves) as it passes from one transparent substance into another. This bending by refraction makes it possible for us to have lenses, magnifying glasses, prisms and rainbows.
