Abstract. Purpose:To report a case of gonococcal keratoconjunctivitis who was diagnosed using a rapid diagnostic kit. Case:A 48-year-old male was referred to us for swollen eyelid,pain and discharge in the right eye since 2 days before. He had been diagnosed with orbital phlegmon the day before. Findings:Both eyes showed profuse creamy discharge. The right eye showed swelling and hyperemia. Smear from the discharge showed gram-negative diplococcic phagocytozed by leukocytes. A rapid diagnostic kit,Clearview Gonorrhoeae®,showed positive for gonococcus,leading to the diagnosis of gonococcal conjunctivitis. Neisseria gonorrhoeae was cultured from the smear 4 days later. Topical and systemic treatment with antibiotics was followed by rapid improvement and cure 8 days later. Conclusion:Clearview Gonorrhoeae® was useful in the rapid diagnosis of gonococcal keratoconjunctivitis.
