It was reported that a patient started having tearing and pain in the left eye one day post-cataract surgery.Two days post-surgery, the patient exhibited anterior chamber inflammation and was given intravitreal antibiotic that same day as treatment.The diminished vision was observed by the patient on the 3rd day after surgery, and the best-corrected visual acuity (bcva) decreased to 2/60.A pars plana vitrectomy (ppv) was then performed and intravitreal antibiotic was administered to the patient.During the next follow-up, a decrease in the inflammation was noted.A vitreous biopsy was collected during the ppv and sent for culture; no organism growth was noted and gram stain and koh were negative.The patient is reported to have suffered endophthalmitis.The surgeon suspects the i/v fluids as the possible cause.As of the latest update, the patient is currently still under treatment at the facility.
