Clinical characteristics of microbial keratitis in a university hospital in Taiwan.
TL;DR: Wang et al. as discussed by the authors analyzed the clinical and microbiological characteristics of microbial keratitis at the National Taiwan University Hospital in the preceding 10 years and found that contact-lens wear was the most common predisposing factor (44.3%).
Journal ArticleDOI
Therapeutic penetrating keratoplasty for microbial keratitis in Taiwan from 1987 to 2001
