Management of corneal infections ?

Corneal infections can be caused by a myriad of pathogens including bacteria, fungi, parasites, and viruses. The initial process, in most cases, is the adherence and penetration of the infectious agent through the corneal epithelium. This results in an inflammatory cascade that produces inflammatory cells and cytokines such as interleukins and matrix metalloproteinases. While these have antimicrobial functions, they also degrade the corneal structural proteins and result in ulceration of the corneal stroma.
