ABSTRACT
Pseudomonas scleral abscess is characterized by acute onset and rapid progression to scleral perforation, and has a subsequent risk of endophthalmitis. After control of infection with appropriate antibiotics, graft surgery should be performed for reinforcing the defected sclera. We performed a scleral homograft on the eye with large necrotic sclera caused by Pseudomonas aeruginosa infection after pterygium excisIon. And the results were remarkably good.
