Abstract
Endophthalmitis is a serious ophthalmologic condition involving purulent inflammation of the intraocular spaces. Fungal endophthalmitis is a highly sight-threatening condition that can be complicated by difficulties in diagnosis and therapeutic delay. We report herein a rare case of bilateral endogenous Candida albicans endophthalmitis with favorable outcome. High suspicion of fungal origin is essential since the diagnosis for fungal endophthalmitis is usually based on the ophthalmological exhibition in combination with the presence of fungemia or predisposing factors. Only prompt initiation of systemic, intravitreal and surgical treatment may reduce ocular morbidity or even mortality.
