For keratitis caused by bacterial infection, antibiotic medications are generally used for treatment. In cases of corneal ulcer perforation, inflammation may spread to the eye or throughout the body. Secondary corneal infections may occur following suppurative scleritis or penetrating injuries to the cornea or sclera, requiring both topical and systemic medication. To diagnose keratitis, it is essential first to determine the nature of the inflammation in order to select the appropriate drug therapy.
