Key Words	Persistent corneal ulcer; Amniotic membrane transplantation; Streptococcus mitis; Case report
Core Tip	In this case, we described the clinical and treatment course of an impending perforated corneal ulcer caused by Streptococcus mitis (S. mitis). We also demonstrated that treatment with antibiotics and amniotic membrane transplantation was successful, without the need for penetrating keratoplasty, and this could be considered an alternative treatment for nonhealing descemetoceles induced by S. mitis, as compared to the previous treatment.
