Purpose:

Mitomycin C has been used as an effective agent to regulate healing response ,reducing fibrosis and better outcome of keratorefractive surgery. This study performed to evaluate mitomycin C effect on Tear film tests after Photorefractive keratectomy(PRK).

Methods:

this prospective,randomized ,double blind study ,one eye of myopic patients undergoing PRK was randomly chosen for PRK and the other eye was treated with PRK plus the application of 0.02% MMC for 25 seconds onto the ablated stroma. All patients had shirmer , TBUT and Osmolarity testing preoperatively . Osmolarity test was remeasured 3month post surgery. shirmer and TBUT tests was done at 1,3,6 months after surgery.

Results:

15 patients (30 eyes) with a mean age of 27.53±7.04 years (18-40 years) were enrolled. There were no statistically significant differences between the PRK and PRK+MMC groups regarding the tear function tests preoperatively or at any postoperative follow-up visit.

Conclusion:

The intraoperative use of MMC during PRK did not induce tear deficiency,and it seems that MMC can be used safely when necessary.
