Endophthalmitis is a severe intraocular infection with potentially devastating consequences, such as becoming blind or loss of an eyeball. It can be exogenous (postoperative or posttraumatic) or endogenous. The most frequent causes of postoperative endophthalmitis are cataract surgery and intravitreal injections.

SUMMARY Two cases of Pseudophakic endophthalmitis following extracapsular surgery and insertion of posterior chamber lenses were managed with removal of the lens, vitrectomy, and intravitreal antibiotics. Removal of the intraocular lens, posterior capsule, and associated inflammatory membranes was easily accomplished maintaining a clear ...

Endogenous endophthalmitis still presents a diagnostic and therapeutic challenge even with improvements in therapeutic modalities. The main prognostic factor is the virulence of the causative organism: once the organism enters the eye, it rapidly destroys ocular tissues. With the increasing ability to prolong the life of very ill patients, incidence of

Patients with bleb-related inflammation or infection after glaucoma filtration surgery may present with a spectrum of clinical features ranging from asymptomatic inflammation to devastating endophthalmitis. The pathogenesis depends on the virulence of the invading organism and the integrity of the ocular surface.

Endophthalmitis carries a poor visual prognosis for patients and can be a potentially blinding condition that may result in loss of the eye. Early diagnosis and prompt treatment are imperative to save the eye. Delay in diagnosis affects visual prognosis and therefore doctors should be aware of the presenting features of endophthalmitis.

Postoperative endophthalmitis is a rare complication of ophthalmic surgery. The use of prophylactic antibiotics and scrupulous surgical techniques will help to reduce its incidence, but sporadic cases may still occur. If postoperative endophthalmitis is a diagnostic possibility aggressive investigation and initial management improves the prognosis ...

Listeria monocytogenes is a rare cause of endogenous endophthalmitis. During the last 20 years about 30 cases have been published, all of which showed similar clinical features and a profound visual loss mainly owing to delayed diagnosis. This case report is about an otherwise healthy 41-year-old woman whose diagnosis was established 17 days after the ...

Nineteen consecutive cases of culture-proved posttraumatic endophthalmitis occurred. Over an eight-year period, 19 (7.4%) of 257 patients with penetrating trauma had endophthalmitis develop, and 19 (31.1%) of 61 cases of endophthalmitis were due to trauma. Eleven (10.7%) of 103 patients with intraocular foreign bodies had endophthalmitis develop. Final

Listeria endophthalmitis developed in a patient who was being treated for extensive metastases of carcinoma of the breast. At the time of admission she was receiving cobalt therapy, chemotherapy, and high doses of oral steroids. The early identification of organisms with an immediate paracentesis and the early institution of broad-spectrum antibiotics ...
