Abstract
Ocular nocardiosis is rare. Most cases of nocardial keratitis have resulted from corneal trauma by objects contaminated with the organism. We describe the first case of Nocardia asteroides keratitis associated with an extended wear soft contact lens. We also describe its successful treatment with topical trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole in combination sulfacetamide.Entities:
