Moraxella lacunata isolated from epidemic conjunctivitis among teen-aged females.

A Ringvold, E Vik, L S Bevanger.   

Abstract

An epidemic follicular conjunctivitis affecting teen-aged females has been studied. Moraxella lacunata was isolated from 11% of the patients, a frequency far above the rate found in other types of chronic conjunctivitis. The condition is suggested to be the chronic follicular conjunctivitis (Axenfeld) due to Moraxella lacunata.
