Antibiotic Resistance Problems in Pathogenic Bacteria Associated With Cases of Corneal Ulcers

Prof. M. Musaddiq, Jain D. N. , Budhlani G. N.

Abstract :

Corneal Ulcer means loss of corneal substances as a result of infection and formation of raw, excavated area.” Corneal Ulcers can be caused by exogenous infections i.e. by viruses, bacteria, fungi or parasites and sometimes it is allergic in nature or it can be due to endogenous infections. Bacterial keratitis is serious ocular infectious disease that can lead to significant vision loss. Any infectious process in the cornea producing a keratitis, mild or sever, requires prompt and vigorous treatment with an effective antimicrobial agents to minimize corneal scarring and vision loss. The bacteria are isolated from Corneal Ulcers and to determine the efficiency of empirical antibiotic therapy as the initial treatment for Corneal Ulcer
