    Infectious keratitis remains an important cause of ocular morbidity in ophthalmicpractice. Diagnosis and management of infectious keratitis still remains a seriousdilemma for most ophthalmic physicians. Dr. M. Vanathi MD, Associate Professorof Ophthalmology Cornea & Ocular Surface Services, Dr Rajendra Prasad Centrefor Ophthalmic Sciences, All India Institute of Medical Sciences, New Delhi spoke toseveral imminent Cornea Specialists in India and abroad regarding certain concerns ininfectious keratitis management. The panelists in this discussion on infectious keratitisinclude Prof. Anita Panda, Dr. M.Srinivasan, Prof. John Dart, Dr. Samar Basak, Dr. LimLi and Dr. Bhaskar Srinivasan. Please read on, as the following compilation gives avivid peek into the practice patterns of these dynamic corneal physicians as they sharesome of their experiences and practice pearls.

    Procedure for scraping

    Lim Li

    Bhaskar Srinivasan

    Diagnostic corneal scraping is a must is most ulcerslarger than 2mm in size at presentation and before initiation

    in cases of CLIK may be closely monitored. Therapeuticcorneal scraping depends on the clinical presentation ateach follow-up and best practiced in expert hands as itstands a risk of perforation and increased scarring in thehealing response.

    M. Vanathi: Your perspective on recent/changingtrends in infectious keratitis management..

    Anita Panda

    A few words about surgical therapy:-

    The Objectives are:-

    In tertiary level:

    Lim Li

    Bhaskar Srinivasan

    Improved diagnostics with the advent of PCR andconfocal microscopy, availability of fourth generation intrastromal antifungals, amniotic membrane grafting andcorneal crosslinking therapy in infectious keratitis formthe most salient features in the changing perspectives ofinfectious keratitis.

    M. Vanathi: When do you advocate systemicantibiotics/antifungal therapy in infectious keratitis?

    Anita Panda

    Systemic antibiotics are indicated in:-

    infection

    Lim Li

    Bhaskar Srinivasan

    The consensus on the use of systemic antimicrobialtherapy is in cases with severe ulceration, anterior chamberinvolvement, impending or frank perforation, pediatric andone eyed patients, postoperative cases, refractory ulcersand associated endophthalmitis.

    M. Vanathi: What are your views on combinationversus monotherapy in bacterial keratitis?

    Samar Basak The indications for monotherapy:

    The ideal choice:

    The combination therapy includes:

    drop

    Lim Li

    Bhaskar Srinivasan

    Monotherapy may be advocated for small cornealulcerations and where the etiological organism andsensitivity patterns are known. Larger corneal ulcerations by the culture sensitivity patterns and clinical response. combination therapy also need to be considered.

    M. Vanathi: How often do you use voriconazole inyour practice for management of fungal keratitis? Yourviews on role of voriconazole in fungal keratitis? Wouldyou prefer to add topical antibiotics to antifungal therapy

    in a case of smear positive mycotic keratitis? Anita Panda

    M. Srinivasan

    John Dart

    Samar Basak

    Lim Li

    Bhaskar Srinivasan

    The availability of voriconazole has broadened the

    antifungal therapy arena in recent times. However mostprefer to use topical voriconazole as second line or inrefractory mycotic ulcerations. There seems to be a mixedresponse on the use of antibiotics in mycotic keratitis.Antibiotic therapy as an addendum to antifungal therapyis recommended in mixed corneal infections.

    M. Vanathi: What are you recommendations on useof intracameral / intrastromal amphotericin /voriconazolein management of mycotic keratitis?

    Intracameral / intrastromal antifungals are betterreserved for use of deep mycotic infections with intactoverlying epithelium. They are to be used with caution, asintracameral injections may be associated with intenseanterior chamber reactions and secondary glaucoma.

    Successful management of acanthamoeba keratitis acanthamoeba therapy. Treatment needs to be prolongedfor a period of at least 6 months beyond healing. Limbitisand scleritis are poor prognostic indicators. Keratoplastyresults are poor in acanthamoeba cases. Lamellar

    transplants might help in cases without deep involvement.M. Vanathi: What is your opinion on the role of

    The consensus on the application confocal microscopyin the diagnosis of infectious keratitis is on its usefulness ulcers in their early stage. Accessibility and appropriateexpertise in its interpretation remain limiting factors.

    Bacterial keratitis in a common complicationassociated with contact lens wear besides Acanthamoebainfections. Fungal keratitis has also been seen to affectcontact lens wearers. Contact lens induced keratitis needsto be managed promptly and effectively. Proper counseling

    of patients prior to commencement of contact lens wearon proper contact lens wear and replacement schedules,contact lens care, hygiene and sterilization goes a longwear in effective prevention of corneal infections in lenswear.

With increasing reports in literature on bacterialand fungal keratitis in Post C3R treatment cases,ophthalmic physicians need to be well aware of thiscondition which can result in severe ocular morbidity.Transepithelial C3R treatment for keratoconus might be asafer approach.

    Cyanoacrylate glue application with bandagecontact lens placement is recommended in cases of smallperforation with no active infection. Underlying roughareas ensures better adhesion and longer stay on of theglue aiding in resolution and hence removing the need for afurther surgical intervention. Glue application needs to beperformed deftly to achieve optimal results.
