Abstract
The indolent progression of A. xylosoxidans keratitis may predispose patients to delayed presentation and treatment. This can result in deep stromal infection that complicates management due to poor antibiotic penetration. Deep stromal infections in A. xylosoxidans keratitis warrant the consideration of intrastromal antibiotic injection or early therapeutic penetrating keratoplasty.
