We report a bacterial corneal ulcer that occurred in a patient who had worn extended-wear rigid gas-permeable contact lenses on a 1-week cycle for 9 months. Pseudomonas aeruginosa was cultured not only from the corneal ulcer but also from the contact lens solutions, suggesting that the patient had been noncompliant with care procedures. To our knowledge, this is the first report of a bacterial corneal ulcer associated with use of a rigid gas-permeable contact lens on an extended-wear basis.
我们报告了一例细菌性角膜溃疡病例，该患者长期佩戴硬性透气性隐形眼镜，佩戴周期为1周，共佩戴了9个月。不仅在角膜溃疡处培养出了铜绿假单胞菌，在隐形眼镜护理液中也培养出了该菌，这表明患者未遵守护理程序。据我们所知，这是首例关于长期佩戴硬性透气性隐形眼镜引发细菌性角膜溃疡的报告。
