This law was discovered in 1621 by the Dutch astronomer and mathematician Willebrord Snell (also called Snellius).

- Snell's law is a formula used to describe the relationship between the angles of incidence and refraction, when referring to light or other waves passing through a boundary between two different isotropic media, such as water, glass, or air.
