Refractive surgery is a type of eye surgery used to correct vision problems caused by refractive errors, such as nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism. It involves reshaping the cornea, the clear outer layer of the eye, to improve the way light is focused onto the retina. Common refractive surgery procedures include LASIK, PRK, and SMILE. Refractive surgery is a growing market within the optical industry, as it offers a safe and effective way to improve vision without the need for glasses or contact lenses. It is also becoming increasingly popular due to its convenience and affordability. Some of the companies in the refractive surgery market include Alcon, Bausch + Lomb, Johnson & Johnson Vision, Carl Zeiss Meditec, and Abbott Medical Optics. Show Less Read more
