A 21-year-old man who had radial keratotomy performed two years previously presented with a painful, red right eye. Suppurative keratitis was found in one of the eight radial incisions and Staphylococcus epidermidis was isolated by culture. Lack of stromal healing of the infected incision and the presence of epithelial cysts in four other incisions in the same eye suggest that the cause of the corneal infection was loss of the epithelial barrier function because of epithelial breakdown.
一名21岁男性，两年前接受了放射状角膜切开术，现出现右眼疼痛、发红。在八个放射状切口中的一个发现了化脓性角膜炎，通过培养分离出表皮葡萄球菌。受感染切口的基质愈合不良以及同一只眼睛的其他四个切口中存在上皮囊肿，提示角膜感染的原因是上皮破裂导致上皮屏障功能丧失。
