Poor hygiene will provide good condition for corneal infections by opportunistic free-living amoebae (FLA) in soft contact lens wearers. In the present study an amoebic keratitis due to Hartmannella has been recognized in a 22-year-old girl with a history of improper soft contact lens use. She had unilateral keratitis on her left eye. Her clinical signs were eye pain, redness, blurred vision and photophobia. The round cysts of free-living amoebae were identified in non-nutrient agar medium by light microscopy. These cysts were suspected to be Hartmannella using morphological criteria. A PCR assay has been confirmed that the round cysts were belonged to H. vermiformis.
卫生习惯不良会为佩戴软性隐形眼镜的人感染由自生生活阿米巴（FLA）引起的角膜感染创造良好条件。在本研究中，一名有软性隐形眼镜使用不当史的22岁女孩被诊断为哈特曼氏阿米巴引起的阿米巴性角膜炎。她左眼患有单眼角膜炎。她的临床症状为眼痛、眼红、视力模糊和畏光。通过光学显微镜在非营养琼脂培养基中鉴定出了自生生活阿米巴的圆形包囊。根据形态学标准，怀疑这些包囊为哈特曼氏阿米巴。聚合酶链反应（PCR）检测已证实这些圆形包囊属于蠕虫状哈特曼氏阿米巴。
