AIM:To discuss the effectiveness of bulbar conjunctival flap covering in treating amoebic keratitis.METHODS:The clinical manifestations and treatment of 8 eyes with amoebic keratitis were studied retrospectively.RESULTS:Corneal ulcer excision combined with conjunctival flap covering was done on 8 eyes.Corneal infection was controlled in 7 eyes,and 1 case relapsed after operation.CONCLUSION:Partial resection of corneal ulcer combined with conjunctival flap covering can effectively control amoebic keratitis,and shorten the course,which can provide the conditions for optical keratoplasty.
