Refraction involves conducting eye exams to determine prescriptions for corrective lenses, typically performed by optometrists. Opticians focus on fitting and dispensing eyewear based on those prescriptions. While both roles are essential in eye care, refraction is more clinical, whereas opticians work in retail settings to provide eyewear solutions.
