An autorefractor is a diagnostic device that estimates a person’s refractive error (focus) objectively. It helps determine whether the eye is more nearsighted, farsighted, or has astigmatism. It is commonly used in optometry and ophthalmology clinics, vision screening settings, and pre-testing areas. Its results often guide, but do not replace, a full eye exam and a final glasses or contact lens prescription.
