Scientific paper

A relativistic analysis of the deflection of a light ray due to a massive attractive centre is here developed by solving a differential equation of the orbit of photons. Results are compared with a widely known approximate formula for the deflection obtained by Einstein in 1916. Finally, it is concluded that the results here obtained, although very close to Einstein's values, could stand out as a conclusive reference for comparison with future direct measurements of the deflection.
