Аннотация
PURPOSE: To describe a case of an indolent, chronic Curvularia infection after a ruptured globe injury from an intraocular metallic foreign body in a 38-year old male. Following globe repair and vitrectomy, the patient underwent a sutured scleral-fixated lens. The patient subsequently presented with recurrent painless conjunctival erosion associated with small, pigmented skip lesions of the exposed suture.
OBSERVATION: Indolent, chronic Curvularia infections can present with subtle signs, including small areas of suture exposure and pigmentation as well as and small ciliary body collections.
CONCLUSION: Recurrent conjunctival erosion in cases of secondary sutured scleral fixated intraocular lenses should prompt evaluation for possible infectious etiology.
