Successful management of post-traumatic vancomycin-resistant enterococcus endophthalmitis

Successful management of post-traumatic vancomycin-resistant enterococcus endophthalmitis

Purpose: To highlight good visual outcome with intravitreal amikacin administered 18 days following trauma-inducing vancomycin resistant enterococcal endophthalmitis treated initially with vitrectomy and oral linezolid. Observations: Despite initial vitrectomy, intravitreal vancomycin, ceftazidime a...
