the light bends
Refraction is the change in direction of a wave when it reaches a boundary between two media due to traveling at different speeds in each medium.
it deviates its path and meet where water and air surfaces meet.
Light bends when it passes at an angle into a medium of a different density. When light passes from a less dense medium into a denser medium, like from space into Earth's atmosphere or from air into water, it bends toward the normal, which is an imaginary line perpendicular to the boundary between the two media where the light passes through. Light passing from a denser medium to a less dense medium bends away from the normal.

the light bends
It bends.
The light bends when it passes from one medium to another. But only if it approaches the interface at an angle. In such a case it will still travel slower, but there will be no apparent bending.

Because of the refraction of light. Light bends when it passes from one medium to another, this bending is called refraction not to be confused with reflection.
