Methods: In this clinical trial study performed in Parsian clinic of Isfahan, 75 candidates for photorefractive surgery were included. All of these patients underwent standard PRK in one eye and Q-value adjusted ablation PRK in the other eye. The efficacy of therapy was measured by visual acuity, contrast sensitivity, subjective refraction and patients satisfaction, 3 months after the surgery. Finding: The mean score of postoperative visual acuity in standard PRK group and Q-value adjusted group was ± 1.38 and ± 1.22 respectively without correction. The mean postoperative refraction of standard PRK and Q-value adjusted PRK was 0 ± 0.37 and 0.05 ± 0.3 respectively. There was no significant statistical difference in visual acuity, refraction, contrast sensitivity and postoperative satisfaction between the two groups. Conclusion: There is no significant difference between efficacy of standard PRK and Q-value adjusted PRK in optimizing visual acuity, subjective refraction, contrast sensitivity and patient satisfaction. Key words: Ocular refraction, Photorefractive keratectomy, Contrast sensitivity, Patient satisfaction. 1 Associate Professor, Department of Ophthalmology, Feyz Hospital, Isfahan University of Medical Sciences, Isfahan, Iran. 2 Resident, Department of Ophthalmology, Feyz Hospital, Isfahan University of Medical Sciences, Isfahan, Iran. 3 Ophthalmologist, Isfahan University of Medical Sciences, Isfahan, Iran. 4 General Practitioner, Isfahan University of Medical Sciences, Isfahan, Iran.
