Purpose: To report endotheliitis as an early, key presenting sign of Acanthamoeba keratitis in patients who are soft contact lens wearers.
Methods: We report 4 cases of patients presenting with pain, red eye, and reduction in vision in the context of soft contact lens wear. On examination, the predominant clinical finding was that of endotheliitis, localized fusiform stromal edema with corresponding keratic precipitates, anterior chamber inflammation, and minimal epithelial and anterior stromal signs.
