Abstract
We report a case of severe bilateral simultaneous Achromobacter xylosoxidans keratitis following penetrating keratoplasty (PKP) in a patient with graft-versus-host disease. The predisposing factors, clinical features, treatment options, and final visual outcome are reviewed. To our knowledge, this is the first report of bilateral A xylosoxidans keratitis following PKP.
