The “keratitis kit” aims to standardize specimen collection and their laboratory manipulation. It comprises of pre-labelled laboratory forms and patient informed consent, a vaccinostyle for corneal scraping and a tube for serum collection. In the laboratory, vaccinostyle is inoculated on 5% blood agar both anaerobically and under 5% CO2 atmosphere, and on amoeba. The serum is tested for common bacterial keratitis.
