Purpose: Antibiotic resistance may be problematic in the treatment of bacterial eye infections. Data from large, multi-center, multi-year surveillance studies are useful for tracking resistance to commonly used antibiotics. The Antibiotic Resistance Monitoring in Ocular Microorganisms (ARMOR) study is the only ongoing nationwide antibiotic resistance surveillance program specific to ocular bacteria. We report antimicrobial susceptibility data for isolates collected from pediatric patients from 2009 through 2015. Methods: Clinical centers across the United States submitted ocular isolates of …
