Résumé
To report a patient with dry eye after bilateral photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) with mitomycin C treatment in one eye.
A 29-year-old woman underwent PRK for moderate myopia. The left eye was randomly assigned and intraoperative topical mitomycin C was administered. The right (control) eye was treated with intraoperative corticosteroid only.
The patient developed dry eye symptoms and superficial punctuate keratopathy in the eye treated with mitomycin C. Fifteen months after surgery no improvement was noted.
Photorefractive keratectomy with mitomycin C treatment could induce or exacerbate dry eye.
