Abstract
Endogenous Candida endophthalmitis is arare but vision-threatening disease. In most cases, endogenous endophthalmitis caused by Candida species has abetter prognosis than endogenous endophthalmitis caused by other fungal species or bacteria but the prognosis still depends heavily on the time required for diagnosis and subsequent treatment as well as the initial visual acuity. Suggestions for treatment algorithms have already been made in the past but binding guidelines in ophthalmology only exist sporadically due to the rarity of the disease. This review discusses the current knowledge on endogenous Candida endophthalmitis and draws conclusions from the current study situation.
