Optometry and Vision Science, 04/28/09
Sankaridurg PR et al. - The external ocular surface of children is contaminated with gram-positive bacteria that are resident micro biota. During lens wear, there was a trend for lesser recovery of organisms from the upper bulbar conjunctival samples, but there was no change in the type of microorganisms isolated. At all times, lower lid margins showed consistently greater colonization and is a source of potential contamination of the conjunctival surface.
