Living with Acanthamoeba Keratitis. Acanthamoeba Keratitis (AK) is a rare condition that occurs when microscopic amoeba invade the cornea – the clear layer - at the front of the eye. The amoeba normally live in water and soil and, although the infection has many causes, there is a known risk of infection that can occur when contact lenses come into contact with water because the contact lens can transfer the amoeba to the cornea. Around 85% of Acanthamoeba Keratitis cases in the UK occur in contact lens wearers. AK can be difficult to diagnose and Professor John Dart (Consultant Ophthalmologist at Moorfields Eye Hospital who specialises in research into infectious eye diseases) urges clinicians to consider Acanthamoeba as a possible cause of infection in all contact lens wearers and in other cases of infection if there is no improvement with treatment within 5 days.
