Abstract
Endogenous endophthalmitis (EE) is a severe, acute and diffuse uveitis caused by intraocular haematogenic infection. It affects vulnerable subjects. We report a case of a 42-year-old male with a history of endocarditis. he developed endogenous endophthalmitis in her left eye due to acute endocarditis. Owing to deterioration of the general status, intravitreal injections couldn’t be practiced and therapy consisted only in intravenous antibiotic therapy. We highlight the severity of this disease, associated with unfortunate visual and vital prognosis.
