Purpose: To evaluate the outcomes of wavefront-optimized (WFO) and topography-guided (TG) transepithelial photorefractive keratectomy (transPRK) in the treatment of myopia and myopic astigmatism. Methods: Patients who underwent transPRK using the WaveLight EX500 excimer laser for the correction of myopia and myopic astigmatism between January 2022 and March 2023 were divided into groups of WFO transPRK (77 eyes of 36 patients) or TG transPRK (63 eyes of 31 patients) in this retrospective, observational cohort study. The preoperative and postoperative 3-month refractive and visual outcomes of the two groups were analyzed. Results: In both groups, the uncorrected distance visual acuity was 0.0 logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution or better in 95% of eyes 3 months postoperatively, and the mean manifest refraction spherical equivalent was within ±1.0 diopter in 90% of eyes. No significant differences were observed between the groups in terms of the uncorrected distance visual acuity or astigmatism. A significant induction of higher order aberrations (HOAs) was observed in both groups. However, the induction of total corneal HOAs (p = 0.014) and spherical aberrations (p < 0.001) was significantly lower in the TG group than that in the WFO group. Conclusions: WFO and TG transPRK effectively improved the visual and refractive outcomes; however, the induction of total corneal HOAs and spherical aberration was lesser following the TG ablation.
