AB  - Endophthalmitis  is  an  infection  of  the  globe.  It  is  a  vision-threatening  medical  emergency.  The  condition  typically  results  from  exogenous  inoculation  of  bacteria  or  fungi  following  eye  surgery  or  trauma.  Less  commonly,  endogenous  infection  can  occur  and  may  result  from  the  extension  of  a  corneal  infection.  Patients  with  endophthalmitis  will  present  with  pain  and  decreased  visual  acuity.  For  postsurgical  patients,  the  majority  of  cases  will  present  within  1  week  of  the  surgery.
