Acute Endophthalmitis after Cataract Surgery: Clinical Characteristics and the Role of Intracameral Antibiotic Prophylaxis

Stefan J. R. de Geus et al.

Summary: The study found that bacterial growth was observed in the majority of acute endophthalmitis cases, with most being gram-positive bacteria. More virulent bacteria and severe symptoms were associated with poorer visual outcomes, and a subgroup of patients still developed endophthalmitis despite prophylactic use of cefuroxime.
