Abstract: To describe the demographic and clinical profile of patients with infectious keratitis seen in FEU-NRMF from 2015-2019. The medical records of 67 patients with presumed infectious keratitis at the out-patient department of FEU-NRMF Medical Center seen from January 2015 to December 2019 were reviewed. Demographics, predisposing factors, clinical features, possible etiologic diagnosis, microbiological results and treatment were recorded. A review of eye examination from the baseline findings and follow-ups, including data with regards clinical outcomes, were also extracted from the charts. Frequency and distribution, as well as contingency tables, were used to analyze data. The mean age of patients was 42.0+19.9 years. The majority of them were males (64.2%). Most of the patients worked in craft/ machine labor and construction (25.4%). The vast majority of these individuals have a history of ocular trauma (43.2%) as a predisposing factor. The majority of cases were diagnosed as bacterial (64.2%), but fungal etiology (28.4%) is considered a significant cause. The majority of patients were treated with fluoroquinolones (95.4%); 59.7 percent of patients had improved outcomes. In our institution, surgical intervention is not particularly common. Our study showed that ocular trauma remained the major risk factor for microbial keratitis in our institution, comparable to other studies in the Philippines and India. Fungal keratitis is a significant cause of morbidity among patients with suspected infectious corneal ulcers, and that it often leads to poorer outcomes and need for surgical intervention. |
