Abstract

Purpose: To report the results of photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) with mitomycin-C (MMC) to correct myopia and astigmatism in patients who had previously undergone penetrating keratoplasty (PKP).Methods: Thirty-eight eyes of 32 patients underwent PRK with MMC to correct astigmatism and myopia following PKP.Result: Mean spherical equivalent (5E) was -5.2±4.7 0 (diopter) and mean astigmatism was -2.4±3 0 preoperatively which reached -3.1±3.1 0 and -1.2±2.8 0 3 months after the operation respectively. The cornea was clear in 55.3%, had trace haze in 21.1%, moderate haze in 15.8% and severe haze in 7.9% of cases. Conclusion: PRK with MMC after PKP is a relatively safe and effective procedure. It reduces both the spherical error and the cylindrical component of the ametropia. Corneal haze is the major complication.
