Background LASEK enhancements are often performed with mitomycin C in order to reduce the risk of corneal haze LASEK enhancements are often performed with mitomycin C in order to reduce the risk of corneal haze

Aims The aim of this study is to investigate the outcomes of LASEK retreatment surgery without the use of MMC in terms of predictability, safety, efficacy and stability. The aim of this study is to investigate the outcomes of LASEK retreatment surgery without the use of MMC in terms of predictability, safety, efficacy and stability.

Methods Twenty two eyes of 15 patients (mean age 32 years; age range 21 to 56 years) underwent LASEK retreatment surgery following initial LASEK. The LASEK retreatment procedure was identical in technique to the original LASEK surgery; 20% C2H5OH was instilled for 40 seconds, without the use of mitomycin C. The mean pre-operative spherical and cylindrical refraction was dioptres (range: to -6.00) and dioptres (range: to -5.00) respectively. The mean pre-retreatment spherical and cylindrical refraction was dioptres (range: to -1.75) and dioptres (range: to -1.25) respectively. All treatments were wavefront guided using the VISX S4 Star excimer laser. All procedures were wavefront-guided using the VISX S4 Star excimer laser (CustomVue)

Results Six months post-retreatment, the mean spherical and cylindrical refraction was dioptres (range: to dioptres) and dioptres (range: to dioptres) respectively. Six months post-retreatment, the mean spherical and cylindrical refraction was dioptres (range: to dioptres) and dioptres (range: to dioptres) respectively. The mean UCVA and BCVA was 1.19±0.11 and 1.22±0.13 respectively. The mean UCVA and BCVA was 1.19±0.11 and 1.22±0.13 respectively. No intraoperative complications were encountered. No intraoperative complications were encountered. Grade 1 haze occurred in four eyes which subsided in all cases by eight weeks with continued topical steroid treatment. Grade 1 haze occurred in four eyes which subsided in all cases by eight weeks with continued topical steroid treatment.

Conclusion LASEK retreatments without the use of mitomycin C provided good visual and refractive outcomes. LASEK retreatments without the use of mitomycin C provided good visual and refractive outcomes. With the known and unknown potential side-effects of mitomycin C, LASEK retreatments may be safe and effective without the use of mitomycin C. With the known and unknown potential side-effects of mitomycin C, LASEK retreatments may be safe and effective without the use of mitomycin C. Long term studies on the use of mitomycin C with retreatment surgery over a large refractive range is necessary.
