Painless Acanthamoeba Keratitis with Normal Vision

Conclusions: Atypical presentation of Acanthamoeba infection is uncommon. This case should arouse the awareness of an indolent presentation of this potentially sight-threatening disease. Clinicians should have a high level of suspicion in contact lens users who present with corneal abnormalities despite an absence of pain. Microbiological work-up and prompt treatment led to a complete resolution of Acanthamoeba infection in our patient.
