American Journal of Ophthalmology, 1994
We treated a healthy soft contact lens wearer who developed Acanthamoeba sclerokeratitis in the left eye. The patient had severe pain and ring-shaped subepithelial infiltrates. The keratitis progressed and scleral nodules developed despite aggressive treatment with topical clotrimazole, dibromopropamidine isethionate, and corticosteroids.

Acanthamoeba scleritis is an uncommon but severe complication of acanthamoeba keratitis. We report the clinical and histopathologic features of a patient with acanthamoeba sclerokeratitis.Review of the patient's clinical records and histopathologic examination of the globe including light microscopy and transmission electron microscopy.Review of the ...

The incidence of Acanthamoeba keratitis has decreased significantly, and it is no longer a reportable condition in the United States. Corneal abrasion and contact lenses play an important role in the development of Acanthamoeba keratitis. One of the most important features of the disease is severe pain, which is atypical for herpes simplex.

Survey of Ophthalmology, 1998
Acanthamoeba species are an important cause of microbial keratitis that may cause severe ocular inflammation and visual loss. The first cases were recognized in 1973, but the disease remained very rare until the 1980s, when an increase in incidence mainly associated with contact lens wear was reported.

The Pediatric Infectious Disease Journal, 1986
Acanthamoeba infection of the cornea is an entity now recognized with increasing frequency. We saw two cases of Acanthamoeba sclerokeratitis in contact lens wearers in whom scleritis (anterior and posterior) played a central role in the clinical course of the disease.

The members of genus Acanthamoeba are the etiological agent of uncommon but severe or even fatal opportunistic infections in human beings. The presence of different classes of intracellular and extracellular proteases including serine proteases, cysteine proteases, and metalloproteases has been well documented in environmental and clinical isolates of ...

Acanthamoeba is a small, free-living amoeba which is characterized by a feeding and replicating trophozoite and dormant cyst stage. The resistance of acanthamoeba cysts to extremes of temperature, disinfection and desiccation accounts for the ubiquitous distribution of the organism in our ...

Painless Acanthamoeba keratitis
Canadian Journal of Ophthalmology, 2012Acanthamoeba keratitis (AK) is known to cause sitethreatening ocular infections. Patients often have a history of improper cleaning of contact lenses (CTL), swimming, or using hot tubs while wearing contact lenses. The hallmark symptom of AK is exquisite pain, often out of proportion to the clinical picture.
