Abstract
The cases reported in this paper were connected by but one thing, the causative organisms ; other than this, they have nothing in common. Case1.—Dr. A. J. B., while entering his home on the evening of Dec. 21, 1926, felt some hot cigaret ashes strike his left eye. While he was treating a patient the following morning, the latter sneezed in his face. By noon the eye was congested and watery, with some slight swelling of the bulbar conjunctiva. He was advised to use neosilvol, boric and zinc sulphate and ice compresses. The eye grew worse, the conjunctiva being very edematous, with only a thin watery secretion and no corneal involvement until the night of December 26, when an attempt to dislodge some secretion resulted in wiping off at least one third of the corneal epithelium. Fortunately, this loss was promptly replaced without infection of the cornea. Dr. Warren Davis
