Abstract

Background: Climatic and geographical factors largely govern the epidemiological pattern of microbial keratitis.
However, existing literature data is scarce concerning infiltrate size, organism, and depth of outcomes of microbial
keratitis.
Aim: The present study was aimed at analyzing the effect of infiltrate size, organism, and depth on outcomes of microbial
keratitis.
Methods: The present retrospective study assessed records of subjects with infective keratitis within the defined study
period. The depth and size of the ulcer at presentation were assessed and used to divide subjects into groups and assess
outcomes of the organism causing the disease.
