摘要
A 22-year-old woman presented with pain, redness, watering, and decrease in vision in her left eye 15 days after laser in situ keratomileusis for myopia. Slitlamp examination showed a central full-thickness infiltrate with hyphate edges. Microscopic examination of corneal scrapings from the edge and underneath the flap showed fungal filaments, and the growth on culture media was identified as Scedosporium apiospermum.
