2. Aged above 15 (inclusive), male or female.
3. Preliminary diagnosis of fungal keratitis based on medical history and clinical observations: corneal focus score ≥ 1.
4. Fungal infection confirmed by laboratory tests (positive for any of the three: fungal hyphae on scraping examination, fungal hyphae on confocal microscopy, positive fungal culture).
5. Not treated with antifungal drugs within 48 hours.
6. Willing to cooperate in the completion of all procedures and visits required for the trial.

Exclusion Criteria:

1. Patients with systemic or ocular diseases, or functional disorders with comorbidities, or structural abnormalities that, in the judgment of the investigator, could adversely affect the course or results of the trial (e.g., hyperthyroidism, hepatitis, acute and chronic renal insufficiency).
2. Those who have a history of allergy or serious adverse reactions to any component of IVIEW-1201 and NATACYN®; a history of allergy or serious adverse reactions to polyene macrolides and other antifungal drugs; or have a cumulative total of three or more allergies to other drugs, food and environment; or have a predisposition to allergic symptoms such as rash or urticaria.
3. Patients with severe cardiac, pulmonary, hepatic, or renal dysfunction and patients with life-threatening or severe unstable underlying diseases.
4. Those with other combined infectious ocular surface diseases.
5. Those with sclera involvement.
6. Those with combined corneal perforation or imminent perforation.
7. Patients with glaucoma and corneal limbal stem cell abnormalities that cannot be cured at the same time, severe chemical burns of cornea and conjunctiva, corneal foreign bodies and other diseases not suitable for this trial.
8. Those who would need to wear corneal contact lenses during the trial.
9. Those who add other medications to treat fungal infections during the trial (except non-facial local treatment).
10. Those who are using other drugs that may interfere with the efficacy or safety evaluation of IVIEW-1201.
11. Systemic use of antifungal drugs within 14 days prior to screening.
12. Systemic use of steroidal drugs within 14 days prior to screening. Local use of eye steroidal drugs or nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) within 3 days before enrollment (nasally or bronchially inhaled steroidal drugs are not allowed at any time during the trial).
