Several cases of ocular infections have been reported, including keratitis, blepharitis, and conjunctivitis in immunocompromised corneas, contact lens wearers, or otherwise healthy patients (1,11,12,17). D. acidovorans has further been reported to cause acute suppurative otitis externa and pneumonia in a patient with AIDS (5, 16).…”
