Conventional treatment consists of antibiotics and corticosteroid eye drops, and recurrence is prevalent upon treatment cessation. In this case report, we present a 1-year follow-up of the results of a novel therapeutic approach for recurrent marginal keratitis using a combination of chlorhexidine and vancomycin eye drops. Case Presentation: A 34-year-old male presented with an 8-year history of recurrent staphylococcus-related marginal keratitis in his right eye, consisting of 5 acute episodes, which under a conventional treatment regimen resolved within 10\u201314 days. During the follow-up of his right eye, an inflammation in his left eye developed as well. Treatment with a combination of chlorhexidine at 0.02% and vancomycin at 50 mg\/mL eye drops brought rapid resolution of the acute inflammation with preservation of the effect for at least 1 year. Conclusions: A combination of chlorhexidine and vancomycin eye drops may provide an effective treatment for marginal keratitis. It demonstrated rapid improvement and maintained long-term stability, with disease control observed throughout 1-year follow-up. &lt;\/p&gt;<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1159\/000549058","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,10,20]],"date-time":"2025-10-20T16:01:14Z","timestamp":1760976074000},"page":"829-833","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Management of Recurrent Staphylococcus-Related Marginal Keratitis with Chlorhexidine-Vancomycin Combination: A 1-Year Follow-Up Case Report"],"prefix":"10.1159","volume":"16","author":[{"given":"Shmuel","family":"Kagasov","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4771-1374","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Nir","family":"Gomel","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Amit","family":"Biran","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Asaf","family":"Friehmann","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4661-0993","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Michael","family":"Mimouni","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-6315-6908","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Asaf","family":"Achiron","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"127","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,10,18]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/s0002-9394(14)72383-9"},{"key":"ref2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1038\/eye.1989.27"},{"key":"ref3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/BF01644264"},{"key":"ref4","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ophtha.2016.08.022"},{"key":"ref5","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/j.jcrs.0000000000000754"},{"key":"ref6","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3390\/jof7040255"},{"key":"ref7","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.4103\/2008-322X.163782"},{"key":"ref8","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1186\/s12886-017-0612-2"},{"key":"ref9","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/0002-9394(86)90820-2"},{"key":"ref10","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3389\/fmed.2021.768849"},{"key":"ref11","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/ico.0000000000002186"}],"container-title":["Case Reports in Ophthalmology"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/karger.com\/article-pdf\/doi\/10.1159\/000549058","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2025,12,10]],"date-time":"2025-12-10T09:11:34Z","timestamp":1765357894000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/karger.com\/article\/doi\/10.1159\/000549058"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2025,10,18]]},"references-count":11,"journal-issue":{"issue":"1","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,1,1]]}},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1159\/000549058","archive":["Portico"],"relation":{"is-supplemented-by":[{"id-type":"doi","id":"10.6084\/m9.figshare.30391000","asserted-by":"subject"}]},"ISSN":["1663-2699"],"issn-type":[{"type":"electronic","value":"1663-2699"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2025,10,18]]}}}
