Their philosophy was based on the fact that alterations of corneal shape and curvature are able to change the refractive power of the eye (light rays that focus on retina without further correction, no need for spectacles or contact lenses). Excimer laser is applied to corneal tissue achieving reshaping and curvature change through ablations, thus every image reflection is formed clearly on the retina.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What exactly is refraction?<br \/>\nRefraction is the optical phenomenon in which [&#8230;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":0,"parent":35,"menu_order":5,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-667","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>\u0394\u03b9\u03b1\u03b8\u03bb\u03b1\u03c3\u03c4\u03b9\u03ba\u03ad\u03c2 \u03b5\u03c0\u03b5\u03bc\u03b2\u03ac\u03c3\u03b5\u03b9\u03c2 \u03bc\u03b5 laserLaser refractive procedures - Aktis Eye Laser Center<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/aktis.com.cy\/refractive-surgery\/refractive-procedures\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"\u0394\u03b9\u03b1\u03b8\u03bb\u03b1\u03c3\u03c4\u03b9\u03ba\u03ad\u03c2 \u03b5\u03c0\u03b5\u03bc\u03b2\u03ac\u03c3\u03b5\u03b9\u03c2 \u03bc\u03b5 laserLaser refractive procedures - Aktis Eye Laser Center\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"What exactly is refraction?
