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 ...
