PURPOSE: To determine the characteristics of an eye that developed acute hydrops while being treated for infectious keratitis.
OBSERVATION: A 35-year-old man presented with pain and blurred vision in his left eye. He had undergone cataract surgery seven years earlier and was being treated for poorly controlled atopic dermatitis. The decimal best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) of the left eye was 0.01. Slit-lamp microscopy showed conjunctival injection, corneal opacification, and a corneal ulcer. The patient was diagnosed with infectious keratitis and was treated with topical and systemic antibiotics. During the hospitalization, the patient was noted to rub his eyes frequently and vigorously. Five days after the first visit, the cornea protruded markedly, and the stroma surrounding the ulcerated area was edematous. These findings led to a diagnosis of acute hydrops.Penetrating keratoplasty was performed to prevent corneal perforation. Histopathological study of the excised cornea showed stromal edema, infiltration of leukocytes, and a tear in Descemet's membrane. Unfortunately, the patient developed endophthalmitis the day after the surgery. The anterior chamber was irrigated with antibiotics, and antibiotics were also injected into the vitreous. The endophthalmitis gradually subsided, and two years after the surgery, the patient's decimal BCVA had improved to 0.6.
CONCLUSION AND IMPORTANCE: Vigorous eye rubbing in cases of infectious keratitis can induce acute hydrops, and timely surgical intervention is recommended.
