The carriers of the US Pacific Fleet surprised the Japanese who had come to destroy it, sinking four Japanese fleet carriers at the loss of one of their own, completely turning the tables in the Pacific war at sea.
The main impact was the turning point of the Naval war in the Pacific. Prior to Midway, the Allies were fighting an uphill battle against the Japanese Navy. After Midway, the Japanese Navy was fighting an uphill battle with the Allies.
The Allies turned the tide of war in the Pacific through a combination of strategic victories, key battles, and effective use of intelligence. Notable engagements, such as the Battle of Midway in June 1942, crippled the Japanese navy and shifted the momentum. The Allies employed an "island-hopping" strategy, bypassing heavily fortified islands to capture strategically important ones, thereby establishing bases closer to Japan. Additionally, improved intelligence and code-breaking efforts allowed the Allies to anticipate and counter Japanese movements effectively.
That would be the Battle of Midway (4-7 June 1942) where the Japanese Navy suffered a reversal at the hands of the US Navy from which they never regained the initiative in the Pacific during WW2 .

Primarily the Battle of Midway, after which the Allies had the upper hand - prior to Midway, the Japanese did.
