A prospective evaluation of the effect of mitomycin-c on corneal endothelium after photorefractive keratectomy for myopia correction
CONCLUSION: In our study, MMC had no significant effect on corneal endothelial cell counts or MCA. While there were statistically reduced CV and percentage of hexagonal cells, these did not appear to be clinically significant. MMC is safe to use routinely to prevent haze formation in PRK.
