Chryseobacterium meningosepticum keratitis.

PURPOSE: To describe a case of a corneal ulcer caused by Chryseobacterium meningosepticum in an eye without significant comorbidities. DESIGN: Interventional case report. METHODS: Retrospective case review. RESULTS: A 48-year-old man presented with a corneal ulcer in his right eye and was treated with ofloxacin and fortified bacitracin ophthalmic solution. Cultures grew C. meningosepticum, and the infection resolved. Two previous case reports in the literature have described ocular infections with this bacterium, both in postoperative patients with significant ocular comorbidities. CONCLUSIONS: This is the first report of ocular infection with C. meningosepticum in an eye with no significant comorbidities.
