    Abstract:
    Eyes with implanted hardware carry a higher risk of infection. Here we report a rare case of Nocardia farcinica endophthalmitis and Baerveldt implant infection originating from infectious keratitis in a patient with a Boston type I keratoprosthesis. The infection resolved with aggressive surgical and medical treatment.
