Post-LASIK Infectious Crystalline Keratopathy Caused by Alternaria

Purpose: To describe a case of infectious crystalline keratopathy (ICK) after laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) caused by Alternaria species. Methods: A case report of a 29-year-old woman who presented with clinical features of ICK 3 weeks after LASIK surgery. Results: Medical therapy failed to control and resolve the corneal infection. Penetrating keratoplasty was performed, which controlled the infection and aided in visual recovery of 20/30.The culture of the corneal button revealed the presence of Alternaria species fungus. Conclusions: Alternaria species fungus may cause ICK after LASIK.
