The Influence of Breastfeeding on PRK Outcomes: A Comparison of Visual and Refractive Results.

Adir Sommer et al. · European journal of ophthalmology · 2026
Purpose

To compare the visual and refractive outcomes of breastfeeding versus non-breastfeeding women who underwent photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) surgery.

Methods

In this retrospective study, medical files of women who underwent PRK surgery between January 2013 and December 2023 were reviewed.

More results

The study included 12,843 eyes from 6,567 women, with 550 eyes from breastfeeding women.

Breastfeeding was not linked to higher retreatment rates (P = 0.79).

Multivariate analysis found no significant differences.
