Pseudomonas aeruginosa keratitis in a tertiary referral center: a decade of clinical insights and therapeutic challenges
Pseudomonas aeruginosa keratitis remains a severe, sight-threatening condition associated with significant surgical burden and suboptimal visual outcomes. Despite retained sensitivity to key antibiotics, high rates of corneal perforation and endophthalmitis emphasize the need for timely diagnosis and aggressive management. Future prospective, multicenter studies with longer follow-up are warranted to better define long-term outcomes and guide treatment strategies.
