Abstract
Corneal graft infections, in the presence and absence of sutures, share similar indications and risk factors. However, infections caused by indolent microorganisms were more prevalent in grafts without sutures. This group of patients required a higher number of surgical interventions in the form of corneal gluing and the overall visual outcome was poor.
