A study was discontinued because an interim analysis of data revealed 4 patients with filamentary keratitis treated with 0.2% topical fluconazole (and concurrent oral fluconazole) had failed to respond to treatment (Rao et al.). [Pg.210]

Corneal involvement, in the form of superficial punctate keratopathy of the epithelium, is common and is found in 100% of patients. More serious changes include corneal ulceration, with subsequent loss of vision in 70% of patients, neovascularization, pannus, and scarring. Other corneal findings include Trantas dots, keratoconus, and filamentary keratitis. [Pg.567]

Two other complications now ascribed to alpha chymotrypsin are persistent iridoplegia and filamentary keratitis. In a series of 3222 operations with enzymic zonulolysis the former was observed in 18 (0.05%) and the latter in 34 (1.05%) cases (IS ). It is remarkable that both persistent iridoplegia and increased intraocular pressure developed in aU 3 patients in whom the zonula ciliaris was impregnated with an alpha chymotrypsin solution in a concentration of 1 200 instead of I 5000 as is normally used. [Pg.241]
