Design: Retrospective interventional case series.
Methods: Fifteen consecutive eyes with dislocated PHL repositioned in the CS were reviewed retrospectively.
Purpose: To discover if initial culturing conditions (plate temperature and time delay to incubation) adversely influence the recovery of organisms associated with bacterial keratitis.
Methods: The rate of temperature equilibration of culture plates taken from a refrigerator and placed in an incubator and left on the desk was evaluated with a digital thermometer. A standard inoculum for each of five organisms (S.
