  • Abstract
  • Look Inside

We reviewed 26 eyes of 26 cases of keratomycosis seen during the foregoing 10-year period. Particular attention was paid to the presumed causes, clinical features, detection of causative fungus, therapeutic modality and its effects. History of ocular trauma was present in 11 cases, 42%. The corneal ulcer was dirty and grayish -white in all the eyes. The fungus was identified in 13 eyes, 52%, by direct microscopy and culture. Fusarium sp. was the most frequent identified organism. Pimaricin was used as the drug of first choice in most cases, supplemented by other antifungal agents whenever necessary. The corneal ulcer disappeared in 22 eyes. The other 4 eyes had to be eventually enucleated, of which two were due to Fusarium solani. Keratomycosis by Fusarium sp. tended to show rapid progression. Early diagnosis and initiation of treatment are essential in keratomycosis.
