Comparison Between Polymicrobial and Fungal Keratitis: Clinical Features, Risk Factors, and Outcome.

Purpose: To compare the clinical features, risk factors, and outcome of polymicrobial keratitis with monomicrobial keratitis due to fungus.

Design: Retrospective, comparative interventional case series.

Methods: Consecutive cases of microbial keratitis with significant growth of more than 1 organism in culture and culture-proven fungal keratitis treated with natamycin alone were retrieved from the microbiology department.
