ITS sequencing results. (A) The dilution curve of conjunctival flora samples, which indicates a reasonable increase in results with increasing sample size. The x axis represents the number of sequencing samples randomly selected from a certain sample, and the y axis represents the number of OTUs that can be constructed based on this number of sequencing samples to reflect the depth of sequencing. (B) The abundance rank curve of the WT-TC and DB-TC groups, revealing that the abundance of conjunctival flora in the two groups is higher and more evenly distributed, while the abundance of the DB-TC group is lower than that of the WT-TC group. (C) Alpha diversity analysis revealed no statistical difference in fungal species abundance and diversity between the two groups (p > 0.05)
