Exophiala lecanii-corni keratitis presenting as a serpiginous pigmented superficial lesion: a case report.

Rationale: Patients with bullous keratopathy (BK) treated by Descemet stripping automated endothelial keratoplasty (DSAEK) have a compromised cornea, due to the administration of topical steroid, postsurgical use of contact lenses, and impaired barrier function of the corneal epithelium by BK. We report a case of Exophiala lecanii-corni (E lecanii-corni) keratitis presenting as a serpiginous pigmented superficial lesion after DSAEK.

Patient Concerns: An 81-year-old woman who had undergone cataract surgeries, suffered from decreased vision in the left eye.
