PURPOSE
To describe a case of Nocardia scleritis, an unusual ocular infection.
METHODS
Case report and review of pertinent literature.
RESULTS
An 83-year-old man with leukocytoclastic vasculitis was initially examined for infectious necrotizing scleritis after explantation of an extruded scleral buckle. The patient was successfully treated with sulfonamides.
CONCLUSIONS
Nocardia asteroides may cause infectious scleritis in the absence of cataract surgery or trauma. Treatment with sulfonamides can result in a satisfactory outcome.
