A 60 year-old man presented with corneal
graft neovascularizationand odema one year post corneal graft for
pseudophakic bullous keratopathy. Perilimbal subconjunctival triamcinolone
was given which reduced the neovascularization and improved the corneal
clarity. Unfortunately, he presented two months later with crystalline
keratopathy. Scraps were taken from the lesions for culture and sensitivity
and he was started on topical vancomycin.
