Fusarium endophthalmitis following keratitis associated with contact lenses.

Krista D Rosenberg1, Harry W Flynn, Eduardo C Alfonso, Darlene Miller.   

Abstract

A recent outbreak of fungal keratitis associated with contact lens use has been reported. During the past 4 months, a total of 36 patients with Fusarium keratitis have presented to one medical center. Two cases of Fusarium endophthalmitis resulting from this series of fungal keratitis associated with soft contact lens wear are described.
