If you don’t have 20/20 vision, you have what is called a refractive error. The refraction test will tell your doctor or optometrist what prescription lens you should use to have 20/20 vision. Doctor or Optometrist may use a computerised refractor for the first part of the test, known as objective refraction. In the computerised test, you look through a machine that measures the amount of light reflected by your retina. Auto Refractometer is a computerised device to measure the refractive error of the eyes. The first part of the refraction test, Objective refraction is done using Auto Refractometer.
