Haemophilus influenzae is an unusual corneal pathogen and an unusual cause of corneal ulcers in Western society. In previous reports corneal complications from H. influenzae have been secondary to a conjunctivitis. The first case of a primary H. influenzae corneal ulcer as a complication of therapeutic contact lens wear is presented. Since other uncommon bacteria have been reported as causes of contact lens related corneal ulcers, the bacteriology of contact lens related corneal ulcers is reviewed. Ophthalmologists need to be aware that H. influenzae infections in adults are becoming more frequent.
流感嗜血杆菌是一种不常见的角膜病原体，也是西方社会角膜溃疡的不常见病因。在以往的报告中，流感嗜血杆菌引起的角膜并发症继发于结膜炎。本文报告了首例因治疗性隐形眼镜佩戴而并发的原发性流感嗜血杆菌角膜溃疡病例。由于已有其他不常见细菌被报道为与隐形眼镜相关的角膜溃疡的病因，因此对与隐形眼镜相关的角膜溃疡的细菌学进行了综述。眼科医生需要意识到，成人流感嗜血杆菌感染正变得越来越频繁。
