(A) The slit-lamp photograph at the first visit revealed a 0.5 x 0.7 mm-sized round corneal epithelial defect with stromal infiltration. (B) Seven days after treatment, the corneal lesion exhibited complete epithelialization with subepithelial corneal opacity.

Her right bulbar conjunctiva near the lesion had hyperemia, and a 0.5 x 0.7 mm corneal epithelial defect was seen with intra-stromal infiltration and peripheral neovascularization toward the 12 o'clock direction of the limbus (Fig. 1A). The symptoms gradually improved three days after treatment, and complete epithelialization of the lesion was observed with corneal opacity on the sixth day after treatment (Fig. 1B).
(A) Multiple colonies were formed on the MacConkey agar, and each colony exhibited a non-pigmented, dome-shaped cluster. (B) Gram staining showed various sizes of Gram-negative bacilli (Gram stain, x1,000).

(A) Slit-lamp photography at the first visit showed a 0.5 x 0.5 mm-sized, round corneal epithelial defect with stromal infiltration at the 7 o'clock direction. (B) Seven days after treatment, the corneal lesion showed complete epithelialization with subepithelial corneal opacity.

Her right bulbar conjunctiva near the lesion had hyperemia, and a 0.5 x 0.5 mm corneal epithelial defect was seen with interstitial infiltration and peripheral neovascularization toward the 7 o'clock direction (Fig. 3A). Complete epithelialization of the lesion was observed with corneal opacity on the sixth day after treatment (Fig. 3B).
