amoxicillin-potassium-clavulanate-combination and Diseases-in-Twins

We report here a rare case of simultaneous onset of preseptal cellulitis in twins. The absence of any infection in three other siblings during this period would suggest that the twins may not have developed simultaneous lid infection by sheer coincidence. The authors discuss the possible mechanism and emphasize the need for close surveillance of the twin of an index case with ocular infection.
