Abstract
66-years old female patient applied to our hospital’s emergency service with the complaint of an olive tree branch hitting her right eye. She had conjunctival hyperaemia, discharge, decreased vision and pain on her eye. In the ophthalmologic examination, visual acuity was measured as 0.1 on the right and 0.7 on the left eye. Biomicroscopic examination revealed a large, yellow-white keratitis center on superior cornea, hypopyon and an epithelial erosion which extended up to superior limbus. Ocular ultrasonography was normal. Corneal scraping sampling was made for direct microscopic examination and culture to determine the etiological agent.
