Methods: Clinical findings, anterior segment photographs, corneal endothelial images, and medical treatment of a case of right corneal bee sting are presented. Right and left central corneal endothelial cell analysis was performed by noncontact specular microscopy. Results: The stinger was removed from the cornea. Systemic, subconjunctival, and topical steroids and systemic and topical antibiotics were given. One year later, a corneal scar and anterior capsular opacity of the lens in the right eye were shown by slit-lamp examination. Endothelial cell analysis determined that the endothelial cell density of the right eye was substantially decreased compared with the left eye. Conclusion: Corneal infiltration gradually decreased, presumably because of the systemic, topical, and subconjunctival steroids. Late complications observed in this case included a substantial decrease in cornea endothelial cell density, a corneal scar, and anterior capsular opacity.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessCorneaBee StingNoncontact Specular MicroscopyEndothelial Cell AnalysisCorneal bee sting-induced endothelial changesArticle258981983Q2WOS:0002422635000252-s2.0-3375109303917102681Q1
