Abstract
This paper describes the diagnosis, analysis, and management of ophthalmic bacterial corneal infections, with emphasis on the various risk factors, culture techniques, relations to other pathologic states, prophylaxis, sensitivity trends, and treatment protocols associated with bacterial corneal ulcers. New antiinfective agents and their role in the management of current bacterial ophthalmic infections are also discussed.
