Method In vivo confocal laser corneal microscopy was performed on 26 patients of suspected fungal keratitis, The results were compared with smears.

Confocal microscopy was used to investigate corneal thickness, epithelial and stromal cellular density, and subbasal plexus morphology.

The average density of endothelial cells and the percentage of hexagonal cells of corneal epithelium were observed before and after operations.
