Refractive surgery is a surgical method to change the refractive state of the eye, so that external objects can be clearly imaged on the retina to improve visual function. The concept of refractive surgery is not only used in the correction of common refractive errors (myopia, hyperopia, etc.), but also in cataract surgery, corneal transplantation, and the treatment of presbyopia. Refractive eye surgery is optional eye surgery used to improve the refractive state of the eye and decrease or eliminate dependency on glasses or contact lenses. The most common methods today use excimer lasers to reshape the curvature of the cornea. Refractive eye surgeries are used to treat common vision disorders such as myopia, hyperopia, presbyopia and astigmatism.
