Seventeen dogs with superficial corneal ulcers were chosen for isolation of bacterial cells. All the dogs exhibited various clinical signs like blepharospasm, photophobia, lacrimation, and restlessness.Corneal swabs were collected from all the dogs prior to a detailed ophthalmic examination. They were subjected to culture and antibiotic sensitivity test and the identification of microorganisms. From the study, Staphylococcus aureus was the predominant bacteria isolated from the corneal surface.
