PurposeThe purpose of this study was to evaluate visual function and postoperative refractive errors in patients with granular corneal dystrophy type 2 (GCD2) and cataracts who underwent photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) instead of phototherapeutic keratectomy (PTK) following cataract surgery to avoid PTK-induced central island formation and reduce refractive errors after cataract surgery.
