    Journal: Ophthalmologica; 1975; 170(1):1-12. PubMed ID: 1079931.
    Abstract:
    World literature on the subject reports 112 cases of keratomycosis by Fusarium, including the two cases described in this paper and some personal communications. In most of these cases (60--70%) there is a history of trauma inflicted by vegetable matter or by foreign bodies introduced into the eye (metal, sand, stone, etc.). The different species of Fusarium isolated are F. episphaeria, F. dimerum, F. moniliforme, F. nivale, F. oxysporum, and F. solani. The treatment recommended in a 5-percent suspension or unguent of pimaricin (natamycin).
