Description |
Endogenous endophthalmitis is caused by the migration of the pathogen to the eye where it crosses the blood-ocular barrier and rare in immunocompetent patients. Here we describe a case of bilateral endogenous endophthalmitis secondary to bacterial meningitis with early detection and good visual recovery in a healthy patient. |
