Abstract

We recently co-authored a report on the ten-year (2007-2017) results achieved at our center (Retina Specialists of Alabama) in the treatment of Acute Post-Cataract Endophthalmitis (APCE). Of all eyes, 77.4% were initially treated with Complete and Early Vitrectomy for Endophthalmitis (CEVE). Visual acuity of ≥ 20/40 was restored in 79% of all eyes versus 53% of eyes reported in the Endophthalmitis Vitrectomy Study. We believe that CEVE is the initial treatment of choice whenever the fundus is obscured by endophthalmitis vitreous opacity.
