摘要

第一例确诊AK病例是在1974年。这种疾病的发病率在20世纪80年代增加，这与软性隐形眼镜的广泛使用相对应。几项研究表明，棘阿米巴囊肿和滋养体附着在几种类型的隐形眼镜上，这表明这些隐形眼镜可能是疾病传播的媒介。其他记录在案的风险因素包括不良的镜片卫生、游泳时使用隐形眼镜以及水源污染1,2。

Unilateral Acanthamoeba Keratitis Following the Use of Cosmetic Contact Lens

The first published case of confirmed AK was in 1974. The incidence of the disease increased during the 1980s, corresponding to the widespread use of soft contact lenses. Several studies have shown that Acanthamoeba cysts and trophozoites adhere to several types of contact lenses, suggesting that these lenses may act as a vector for disease transmission. Other documented risk factors include poor lens hygiene, contact lens use while swimming, and water source contamination1,2.
