An Introduction

Refractive surgical procedures include any and all procedures that reduce refractive error, i.e., reduction of myopia (nearsightedness), hyperopia (farsightedness), and astigmatism. All of these procedures are designed to minimize dependence on eyeglasses and contact lenses, and represent exciting and extraordinary advances in the field of ophthalmology.
