Zusammenfassung

Keratitis ist eine seltene aber bedrohliche Komplikation des Kontaktlinsentragens. Ungeachtet des Umstandes, dass der betreuende Kontaktlinseanpasser im Jahr nach der Statistik nur 1,7 schwere Keratitisfälle pro Jahr sieht, braucht er dafür besondere Kenntnisse in Diagnostik und Therapie. Ein globaler Infektionswandel mit einem zunehmend gehäuften Auftreten von früher apathogenen Erregern in keratitischen Augen in Kombination mit einem hohen Grad von Non-Compliance der Träger erfordert eine sorgfältige augenärztliche kontaktologische Betreuung und Nachsorge.

Abstract

Keratitis is a rare but important and possibly sight threatening complication of Contact Lens wearing. Despite of the number of only about 1.7 keratitis cases per ophthalmolgist per year, this serious side effect needs knowledge and special diagnosis and treatment. Global changes of infectious agents and increase of previously unsuspicious pathogens in combination with a high degress of non-compliance indicate that Contact Lens wearing must be accompanied careful ophthalmologist’s medical care and after-care.
