A 40-year-old man, clerk by occupation, came with symptoms of pain, photophobia, watering, and blurriness of vision in his right eye of 2-month duration. He was in good general health and had no history of any systemic diseases, recent ocular trauma, ocular surgery, or contact lens use. He was diagnosed elsewhere with nonhealing corneal ulcer and was on topical fluoroquinolone ofloxacin and antifungal fluconazole eye drops. However his condition showed no improvement. His earlier reports showed positive Mantoux test with induration of 18 mm done 1 month back and normal blood sugar levels and seronegativity for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and Hepatitis B and Hepatitis C virus. TB gold test was negative. Upon presentation, best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) was 0.48 Log MAR in the right eye and 0.00 Log MAR in the left eye, respectively. Slit lamp biomicroscopy in the right eye revealed a paracentral 3 mm * 3 mm horizontally oval corneal ulcer from 5 to 7 o'clock meridian inferiorly 2 mm away from limbus with underlying stromal edema (Figure 1). Corneal sensations over the ulcer were normal. Circumcorneal congestion was present. There were no satellite lesions. It was a whitish dry looking ulcer. Anterior chamber showed mild reaction with 1+ cells and no hypopyon. The ulcer stained positively with fluorescein. The right pupil was reacting sluggishly to light in view of prior use of homatropine eye drops which patient had stopped 1 week ago. Fundus showed mild vitreous haze with no focal retinal or choroidal pathology. Intraocular pressure was 18 mm of Hg on noncontact tonometry. The lacrimal sac bilaterally showed no regurgitation on pressure and syringing showed patent lacrimal passage. B scan ultrasonography was done. It was essentially normal with no evidence of scleritis. Systemic examination revealed no lymphadenopathy and clear respiratory system. Scraping was done with number 15 blade and sent for microbiological examination. All microbiological tests were done in a well-equipped laboratory with trained personnel. Gram staining revealed gram positive, irregular stain and forms of M. chelonae. ZN staining revealed acid fast bacilli, red magenta rods typical of M. chelonae. Further culture on LJ media at 1 week revealed characteristic M. chelonae colonies, circular, smooth, pale cream colonies. To identify the microorganism, its phenotypic characteristics were used, such as pigmentation of colonies growing in the darkness on LJ media-white, cream pigment production (nonchromogenic). Iron reuptake test was negative. Identification to species level was achieved on the basis of the growth characteristics, including growth in less than 7 days, growth at 37 C, failure of growth in presence of sodium chloride 5%, pigment production, and positive catalase test. Antibiotic sensitivity with Kirby-Bauer disc diffusion method showed positive sensitivity to amikacin. Patient was started on topical fortified amikacin (50 mg/mL) and topical tobramycin (14 mg/mL) with rapid resolution of symptoms and healing of ulcer in 3 weeks (Figure 2) leaving behind a nebulomacular corneal opacity in the involved area with BCVA improving to 0.18 at 1 month after treatment.
