FIG.1 Characteristic patterns of non-tuberculous mycobacterial keratitis. (a) Mycobacterium fortuitum keratitis showing paracentral stromal infiltrates with radiating projections, mimicking a ‘cracked windshield’ appearance. (b) Infectious crystalline keratopathy characterized by white, crystalline, refractile, branching stromal infiltrates.
