Subjects underwent a surgical procedure between February 2019 and June 2019. A three-month follow-up was recorded. Pain score was assessed with a visual analogue scale (0-10) and re-epithelialization time recorded. A total of 48 eyes from 24 patients were recruited. Mean uncorrected distance visual acuity (UDVA) was 20\/20.31 (0.00 \u00b1 0.02 LogMAR). A total of 98% of eyes did not change corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA) lines. Two percent of eyes lost one line of CDVA. Preoperative spherical equivalent was -2.67 \u00b1 1.37 D and after three months changed to -0.21 \u00b1 0.34 D, and 2% of eyes changed 0.50 D or more between one and three months. Pain score was 3.29 \u00b1 0.61 (3 to 6) score points at day one and 0.08 \u00b1 0.27 score points at day seven. Finally, re-epithelialization time was 2.50 \u00b1 1.20 days. PRGF addition to conventional refractive treatment such as TPRK seems to alleviate immediate postoperative pain and positively contribute to corneal re-epithelization time.<\/p><\/div>\n<p><strong class=\"sub-title\">Keywords:\u00a0<\/strong>photorefractive keratectomy; plasma rich in growth factor; refractive outcomes; transepithelial photorefractive keratectomy; visual outcomes.<\/div>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h3>Figures<\/h3>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row content_placement=&#8221;middle&#8221; content_text_aligment=&#8221;center&#8221;][vc_column]<div class=\"qodef-image-gallery qodef-grid-list qodef-disable-bottom-space  qodef-ig-grid-type qodef-four-columns qodef-tiny-space  qodef-image-behavior-lightbox\">\n\t<div class=\"qodef-ig-inner qodef-outer-space\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"qodef-ig-image qodef-item-space\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"qodef-ig-image-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a itemprop=\"image\" class=\"qodef-ig-lightbox\" href=\"https:\/\/www.btitrainingcenter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/jcm-10-01939-g001.jpg\" data-rel=\"prettyPhoto[image_gallery_pretty_photo-468]\" title=\"&lt;strong&gt;Figure 1.&lt;\/strong&gt; Standard graphs for reporting refractive surgery.
