Introduction The presence of a corneal ulcer stresses the ophthalmologist as it can be vision threatening It may very often be difficult to treat as the antibiotics used in current practice often seem inefficient The aim of the current study is to present the sensitivity and resistance of the commonly used topical antibiotics in patients with corneal ulcers Materials and Methods Smears from patients with suspected non sterile corneal ulcers CU and corneal ulcers the contact lenses and their disinfection solutions in infected individuals CL were taken Identification of the cultured microorganisms and an antibiogram were performed automatically MICROSCAN AUTO SCAN DADE BEHRING and Alpha Rho Iota system Results In total smears were taken of the smears had positive cultures for bacteria in the CL group and in the CU group In the CU group Gram G bacteria were isolated more frequently whereas in the CL group this was true for Gram G bacteria G bacteria besides pseudomonas were notably resistant to amino glycosides and quinolones whereas Gram bacteria showed great sensitivity in most antibiotics Conclusion lsquo Blind rsquo use of amino glycosides or other antibiotics for CU treatment needs to be re evaluated Choice for the adequate treatment should always be proposed based on the antibiogram and for this close co operation of ophthalmologists with the microbiology laboratory is needed Also CL users need to be instructed for the correct use and disinfection of their CLs |
