Refractive Error (Myopia, Astigmatism) treatment cost

A refractive error is when the shape of the eye stops light focusing on the retina, blurring vision — myopia (near-sighted), hyperopia (far-sighted), astigmatism or age-related presbyopia. It is found on an eye exam and refraction test and corrected with glasses, contact lenses or laser vision surgery (LASIK, PRK, ReLEx SMILE).
