ABSTRACT Purpose: The type III secretion system (T3SS) is a signi?cant virulence determinant for Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Using a rodent model, we found that contact lens (CL)-related corneal infections were associated with lens surface bio?lms. Here, we studied the impact of human tear ?uid on CL-associated bio?lm growth and T3SS expression. Methods: P. aeruginosa bio?lms were formed on contact lenses for up to 7 days with or without human tear ?uid, then exposed to tear ?uid for 5 or 24 h. Bio?lms were imaged using confocal microscopy. Bacterial culturability was quanti?ed by viable counts, and T3SS gene expression measured by RT-qPCR. Controls included trypticase soy broth, PBS and planktonic bacteria. Results: With or without
