In this paper we describe the related risk factors, the success of cultural procedures and the outcome of medical management. In 2 out of the 3 cases we obtained cultures positive for Acanthamoeba, from the contact lenses and the contact-lens case. The isolated strains belong to the group II according to Pussard and Pons and they were proven pathogen for experimentally infected mice. All infections were treated successfully; however in 2 out of the 3 patients the visual acuity was reduced to the light perception
