Corneal Ulcer in Suppurative Keratitis with No Fungal Hyphae on Corneal Smear

This protocol covers suppurative keratitis presenting as corneal ulcer in which corneal smear examination has been carried out and no fungal hyphae are identified. The smear result is central to defining the appropriate management pathway for this presentation.

When the ulcer does not resolve with continued medical management, or when corneal integrity is under threat, surgical intervention is indicated. The protocol defines the specific clinical thresholds that trigger this escalation and the range of surgical options considered based on the extent of involvement.
