Refractive errors are common visual issues that occur when the eye is not able to focus light on the retina properly, leading to blurred vision. The most common types include myopia (nearsightedness), hyperopia (farsightedness), astigmatism (abnormal corneal curvature) & presbyopia (ageing-related inability to focus on near objects). Refractive errors can occur at all ages & can hinder everyday activities such as reading, driving or using electronic devices. Refractive errors can be easily corrected with contact lenses or surgical methods like LASIK or glasses & thus vision becomes clear & comfortable.
