Multiple Choice

A 32-year-old contact lens wearer presents with red, painful eyes and blurred vision, diagnosed with bacterial keratitis. Despite treatment with topical moxifloxacin, symptoms persist after three days, raising concerns about antibiotic resistance.
Moxifloxacin resistance in keratitis is primarily caused by bacterial production of β-lactamase enzymes that degrade the antibiotic.

Multiple Choice

A 32-year-old contact lens wearer presents with red, painful eyes and blurred vision, diagnosed with bacterial keratitis. Despite treatment with topical moxifloxacin, symptoms persist after three days, raising concerns about antibiotic resistance.
Mutation in the quinolone resistance-determining regions (QRDRs) of DNA gyrase can hinder moxifloxacin from binding effectively, leading to resistance in keratitis infections.
