ABSTRACT Bacterial keratitis is a vision-threatening infection mainly caused by Gram-positive bacteria (GPB). Antimicrobial therapy commonly empirical using broad-spectrum agents with efficacy increasingly compromised the emergence of antimicrobial resistance. We used combination phenotypic tests and genome sequencing to identify predominant lineages GPB causing characterize their resistance patterns.
