[Refractive disorders. Clinical aspects and spontaneous course].
Refraction is the name given to determination of the dioptric values of the eyes, which is indispensable to correct the visual deficit due to ametropia. Disorders of refraction affect half the world population, and for this reason much attention should be paid to their diagnosis and treatment. Their various symptoms result in nuisances at school age and in the exercise of most professions, thereby preventing the subjects affected from enjoying a full life. Measuring refraction is a basic examination for all ophthalmologists.
