Long-term mitomycin C (MMC) effects on photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) were compared in simple myopic and astigmatic patients<jats:italic>. Methods<\/jats:italic>. In this observational cohort study, subjects were selected based on preoperative and postoperative data collected from medical records; they were divided into simple myopia with\/without MMC and myopic astigmatism with\/without MMC groups. Haze, uncorrected visual acuity (UCVA), best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA), subjective refraction, and K-reading were evaluated at 1-, 3-, 6-, and 12-month follow-ups.<jats:italic>Results<\/jats:italic>. One hundred fifty-nine eyes of 80 subjects (34 women and 46 men; mean age, 26.81\u2009\u00b1\u20097.74 years; range, 18\u201353 years; spherical powers, \u22120.50 to \u22128.00\u2009DS; and cylindrical powers, \u22120.25 to \u22125.00\u2009DC) were enrolled. One year postoperatively, the simple myopia with\/without MMC groups showed no difference in UCVA (<mml:math xmlns:mml=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1998\/Math\/MathML\" id=\"M1\"><mml:mi>P<\/mml:mi><mml:mo>=<\/mml:mo><mml:mn>0.187<\/mml:mn><\/mml:math>), BCVA (<mml:math xmlns:mml=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1998\/Math\/MathML\" id=\"M2\"><mml:mi>P<\/mml:mi><mml:mo>=<\/mml:mo><mml:mn>0.163<\/mml:mn><\/mml:math>), or spherical equivalent (<mml:math xmlns:mml=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1998\/Math\/MathML\" id=\"M3\"><mml:mi>P<\/mml:mi><mml:mo>=<\/mml:mo><mml:mn>0.163<\/mml:mn><\/mml:math>) and a significant difference (<mml:math xmlns:mml=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1998\/Math\/MathML\" id=\"M4\"><mml:mi>P<\/mml:mi><mml:mo>=<\/mml:mo><mml:mn>0.0495<\/mml:mn><\/mml:math>) in K-reading; the haze formation difference was nonsignificant (<mml:math xmlns:mml=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1998\/Math\/MathML\" id=\"M5\"><mml:mi>P<\/mml:mi><mml:mo>=<\/mml:mo><mml:mn>0.056<\/mml:mn><\/mml:math>).
