Corneal infection is one of the most important causes of preventable blindness. Suppurative keratitis (corneal ulceration) occurs frequently subsequent to corneal trauma which may be initiated by air-borne particles (commonly vegetable matter such as rice husks, soil, sand or dust). This manual covers identification of causative organisms(bacteria, fungi, viruses or protozoa) leading to prompt and effective treatment and management of the ulcer in order to save sight.
