We investigated conjunctival flora changes in vernal conjunctivitis (VC) (n = 30) patients compared to the normal eye (n = 30). Growth was observed in 86.6% of the vernal group, and 80% of the control group specimens. We believe that administering prophylactic treatment would be helpful in VC patients who are to have intraocular surgery to prevent postoperative endophthalmitis.
