Yes it can , water refracts light , even though the light isn't as straight as it should be it refracts it.
If you need proof , get a glass of water and place a pen into it and you will see as if the pen is broken.

That is actually why you have the rainbow:)

Red light rays will bend the least when entering a drop of water, as red light has the longest wavelength of the visible light spectrum. Blue light rays will bend the most, as they have the shortest wavelength. Green light rays will bend somewhere in between red and blue.
Light will bend towards the normal as it enters water from air, due to the change in speed of light when it moves from one medium to another with a different optical density.
Light can bend when it passes through different mediums with varying densities, such as air and water. This bending of light is called refraction. Additionally, light can also bend in the presence of gravitational fields, a phenomenon known as gravitational lensing.
The phenomenon that makes objects appear to bend water is called refraction. When light travels from one medium to another (e.g. air to water), its speed changes, causing the light waves to bend. This bending of light creates an optical illusion of objects appearing to be in a different position than they actually are.
Light does not bend water; rather, light passing from one medium to another with a different optical density causes the light to change direction, a phenomenon known as refraction. Light changes direction when it moves from air into water due to the difference in optical density, resulting in the appearance of light bending when it enters or exits the water.
No. Water droplets bend light to make rainbows.

The speed of light slows in water.
true, it does bend when it travles through water.

refraction of light
Yes, light can bend as it passes through materials with different optical densities, a phenomenon known as refraction. This bending of light occurs due to the change in speed of light as it transitions from one medium to another.
When a pencil is placed in water, the light rays passing from air to water bend due to the change in medium. This bending of light rays causes the pencil to appear bent when viewed through the water-air interface. This is a phenomenon known as refraction.
