The eye may become intensely red and inflamed. The pain level can be described as constant or stinging that persists even at rest.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Blurred or hazy vision<\/strong> \u2013 Due to the damage to the cornea, which interferes with the standard passage of light, objects may appear less sharp and clear, affecting everyday activities that require visual clarity.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Photophobia (sensitivity to light)<\/strong> \u2013 Bright lights, sunlight, or even indoor lighting can trigger discomfort and pain in the infected eye. This sensitivity exacerbates the overall discomfort experienced by the individual suffering from Acanthamoeba Keratitis.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Excessive tearing<\/strong> \u2013 Tearing is one of the eye\u2019s natural responses to infection and irritation, which can lead to aggravated discomfort and blurry vision.<\/li>\n<li><strong>A feeling of a foreign body<\/strong> \u2013 Many individuals with Acanthamoeba Keratitis report feeling like a foreign object or particle is trapped in their eye. This sensation contributes to persistent discomfort and irritation.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>It is essential to note that symptoms of Acanthamoeba Keratitis can mimic those of bacterial or viral keratitis, resulting in misdiagnosis and delayed treatment. That is why it is essential to seek immediate medical attention from reliable eye care professionals like <a href=\"https:\/\/eyeonceclinic.com\/medical-staff-introduction\/\">Dr. Paik Dong Won<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/eyeonceclinic.com\/medical-staff-introduction\/\">Dr. Jung Sae Rom<\/a> for prompt diagnosis and treatment.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/eyeonceclinic.com\/appointment-request\/\">Book an Appointment<\/a><\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t<\/div> \n\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div> \n<\/div><\/div><h2 style=\"font-size: 25px;text-align: left;font-family:Lato;font-weight:400;font-style:normal\" class=\"vc_custom_heading\" >Risk Factors<\/h2>\n\t<div class=\"wpb_text_column wpb_content_element\" >\n\t\t<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n\t\t\t<p>Acanthamoeba Keratitis is most common among contact lens users; however, without proper precautions, anyone may potentially acquire it through these scenarios:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Exposure to contaminated water<\/strong> \u2013 Activities such as swimming in lakes, rivers, or hot tubs, using inadequately disinfected swimming pools, or even showering with the water that harbors the Acanthamoeba organism can increase the risk of infection.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Improper use of contact lenses<\/strong> \u2013 Failure to disinfect or clean contact lenses using the appropriate solutions for lens care and wearing contact lenses while swimming or showering can introduce Acanthamoeba to the eyes.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Corneal abrasions or injuries<\/strong> \u2013 A scratched or injured cornea can create an entry point for Acanthamoeba into the eye, especially if the individual is exposed to activities that may increase the risk of corneal abrasions like wearing ill-fitting contact lenses, using dirty or damaged lenses, or accidentally rubbing the eye with a foreign object.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Reduced immune response<\/strong> \u2013 People with weakened immune systems are more susceptible to Acanthamoeba Keratitis. A compromised immune response can make it harder for the body to fight infection effectively.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Once the Acanthamoeba gains access to the eye, it can attach to the cornea\u2019s surface and begin to infect it. It is imperative to consult your ophthalmologist from your trusted eye center, like <a href=\"https:\/\/eyeonceclinic.com\/\">Eyeonce Eye Clinic<\/a>, if classic symptoms of this condition start to manifest.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<h2 style=\"font-size: 25px;text-align: left;font-family:Lato;font-weight:400;font-style:normal\" class=\"vc_custom_heading\" >Diagnosis and Treatment<\/h2>\n\t<div class=\"wpb_text_column wpb_content_element\" >\n\t\t<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n\t\t\t<p>At Eyeonce, we diagnose Acanthamoeba Keratitis with a combination of clinical evaluation, specialized tests, and the expertise of our expert ophthalmologists. The diagnostic process may involve:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Patient history and symptoms<\/strong> \u2013 Our eye care professionals will discuss your symptoms, medical history, and any recent activities that might have exposed you to Acanthamoeba.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Slit-lamp examination<\/strong> \u2013 This is done to examine the cornea\u2019s surface closely. Acanthamoeba infections often cause distinctive patterns of corneal damage, which can aid in diagnosis.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Corneal scraping<\/strong> \u2013 This test is done to get a sample of the cornea\u2019s surface that will be analyzed in the laboratory to examine the presence of Acanthamoeba organisms.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Culturing <\/strong>\u2013 Corneal samples can be cultured in a laboratory setting to allow the growth of Acanthamoeba organisms since culturing aids in definitive identification and guides treatment decisions.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR)<\/strong> \u2013 PCR testing can detect the genetic material of Acanthamoeba, offering a particular method for confirming the infection.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Once confirmed that you have Acanthamoeba Keratitis, our ophthalmologists will create a customized treatment plan for you which may include the following:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Topical medications<\/strong> \u2013 These include specialized antimicrobial eye drops containing agents such as polyhexamethylene biguanide (PHMB) or propamidine (Brolene), which target and eliminate Acanthamoeba organisms in the cornea\u2019s surface.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Oral medications<\/strong> \u2013 In more severe Acanthamoeba Keratitis cases, oral medications like itraconazole may be added to enhance the effectiveness of topical treatments, helping combat the infection within the body.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Pain management<\/strong> \u2013 Analgesic eye drops or ointments can be prescribed to alleviate the intense eye pain due to Acanthamoeba Keratitis.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Corneal healing aids<\/strong> \u2013 Special bandage contact lenses may protect the cornea and promote healing, primarily when the infection has led to significant corneal damage. In rare cases of severe damage, a corneal transplant might be considered.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>On top of these possible treatment options, you are encouraged to frequent follow-up <a href=\"https:\/\/eyeonceclinic.com\/appointment-request\/\">appointments<\/a> to monitor progress and make necessary adjustments based on your eye\u2019s response.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<h2 style=\"font-size: 25px;text-align: left;font-family:Lato;font-weight:400;font-style:normal\" class=\"vc_custom_heading\" >Why choose Eyeonce Eye Clinic Gangnam for Acanthamoeba Keratitis treatment?<\/h2>\n\t<div class=\"wpb_text_column wpb_content_element\" >\n\t\t<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n\t\t\t<h3>Utmost Patient Care<\/h3>\n<p>Our eye care professionals and staff ensure to give you your money\u2019s worth.
