The serious eye inflammation of post intraocular Avastin injection

Retrospective statistical study a collection of all patients with post intra vitreal injection (IVI) endophthalmitis in last 10 year period between 2010–2019 in eye department of Tobruk medical center -Tobruk and eye department of Alwahda hospital - Derna. We aim in this study to review the microbiology, clinical characteristics, diagnosis, and management strategies of post-intra vitreal injection endophthalmitis, by comparing our results with the different studies designs and treatment protocols. There were 9 patients of the after intra vitreal injections endophthalmitis cases. The age average is 70 years, 6 cases are females and 3 casees are male, all of them were practice post intravitreal Avastin injection endophthalmitis. There were 8 patients had Diabetes mellitus (DM), 2 patients had cardiovascular disease and 1 patient had hepatitis C as a systemic disease. The most common causative organism after intra vitreous injection endophthalmitis is Coagulase-negative staphylococci (CNS) 100% from the 56% positive causative organisms and 44% are no detected microorganisms, the outcome of cases which managed with pars-plana-vitrectomy (PPV) improved significantly about 60 Letters (> 3 Lines) and cases managed without PPV > 15 Letters (> 3 Lines). The cases of post intraocular endophthalmitis which diagnosed and treated early with PPV give a good result and can save the vision. The cases of acute POE in the first 3 day had significant better function (P value = 0.02).
