This systematic review aims to summarize the literature on IVIs of voriconazole for fungal endophthalmitis. <b><i>Methods:</i></b> We conducted a systematic review of the literature to determine the effectiveness and safety of IVIs of voriconazole in the treatment of fungal endophthalmitis. We searched databases such as PubMed and Embase using the following search terms \"Endophthalmitis\" AND \"Intravitreal Injections\" AND \"Voriconazole\" with date limits of January 1, 1900, to December 31, 2022.

The predisposing factors, outcomes, and management of such cases were evaluated. <b><i>Results:</i></b> A total of 54 articles consisting of 105 cases of anterior migration of Ozurdex were included in this analysis.
