We examined two soft contact lens wearers who developed keratitis associated with Bacillus contamination of their contact lens care systems. Patient 1 developed a corneal ulcer caused by B. subtilis, and Patient 2 demonstrated multiple, diffuse, punctate corneal epithelial opacities associated with B. cereus contamination in the contact lens and lens case compartment. The contact lens cases of both patients contained Bacillus spores that survived multiple heat disinfection treatments. Three different contact lens chemical disinfection systems used for the minimum recommended time failed to kill the Bacillus organisms.
我们检查了两名软性隐形眼镜佩戴者，他们因隐形眼镜护理系统被芽孢杆菌污染而患上角膜炎。患者1患上了由枯草芽孢杆菌引起的角膜溃疡，患者2表现出与隐形眼镜及镜盒中蜡样芽孢杆菌污染相关的多处弥漫性点状角膜上皮混浊。两名患者的隐形眼镜盒中都含有经多次热消毒处理仍存活的芽孢杆菌孢子。三种不同的隐形眼镜化学消毒系统在使用最低推荐时间时未能杀死芽孢杆菌。
