Material and Methods: All cases were viewed in Centro Vision, here they underwent a complete ophthalmic examination and were diagnosed with Staphylococcus aureus keratitis based on a microbiological study. In both cases we began with the gold standard therapy based on fortified topical drops of vancomycin and an aminoglycoside. Due to ineffective action and/or poor tolerance of vancomycin, we decided to use topical linezolid. Results: Two female patients with Staphylococcus aureus keratitis received ocular 0.2% topical linezolid every hour. In both cases we saw a marked clinical improvement and a good tolerance to this antibiotic. Conclusion: 0.2% Topical linezolid is an effective and well tolerated antibiotic when used in the treatment of Staphylococcus aureus keratitis. It is more comfortable and less toxic than topical vancomycin.Objetivo: Reportar el uso tópico ocular de linezolid 0.2% para el tratamiento de queratitis por Staphylococcus aureus con resultados exitosos. Material y Métodos: Todos los casos acudieron a Centro Visión, a ambas pacientes se les realizó un examen oftalmológico completo y se les diagnosticó queratitis por Staphylococcus aureus basado en un estudio microbiológico. En ambos casos se inició con la terapia estándar basada en gotas tópicas fortificadas de vancomicina y un aminoglucósido. Debido a una inefectiva acción y/o una pobre tolerancia antibiótica de la vancomicina se optó por el uso de linezolid tópico. Resultados: Dos pacientes de sexo femenino con el diagnóstico de queratitis por Staphylococcus aureus recibieron linezolid 0.2% tópico ocular cada hora. En ambos casos se apreció una marcada mejoría clínica y una buena tolerancia antibiótica. Conclusión: El linezolid 0.2% tópico es un antibiótico efectivo y muy bien tolerado cuando es usado en el tratamiento de queratitis por Staphylococcus aureus. El linezolid tópico es más confortable y menos tóxico que la vancomicina tópica.Universidad de San Martín de Porres.
