A 61-year-old woman scratched her eye with a bamboo branch and developed a serious fungal eye infection caused by a rare fungus called Pseudoshiraia conidialis. This is the first reported case of this particular fungus infecting human eyes. Although initial treatment with antifungal medications showed promise, the infection proved difficult to cure due to the fungus being resistant to multiple antifungal drugs. The case highlights the importance of early diagnosis and treatment of fungal eye infections.
