During a 30-year period, causative organisms were identified on Gram's stain and culture in 547 of 677 cases of infectious corneal ulcers. Even if no organisms were seen on Gram's stain, culture results were often positive. Staphylococcus was the most common isolate; Moraxella, Pseudomonas, and Streptococcus pneumoniae were the next most frequent ...
