Abstract. Purpose:To report the incidence of levofloxacin-resistant strains in the bacterial flora cultured from eye discharges. Cases and Method:Eye discharges were collected and cultured from 136 outpatients and 151 patients staying in the hospital or senile homes. The bacterial organisms were tested as to resistance to levofloxacin. Results:A total of 126 strains were isolated from outpatients and 147 strains were isolated from patients in hospitals and senile homes. Incidence of resistance to levofloxacin was 29% in the former group and 56% in the latter. Incidence of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus(MRSA)was 6% in the former group and 20% in the latter. Conclusion:Incidence of resistance to levofloxacin is higher among in-patients and residents in senile homes than in outpatients.
