Confocal scanning laser microscopy in patients with postoperative endophthalmitis

ConclusionsIVCM was a useful tool in the detection of microscopic chronic corneal abnormalities caused by postoperative endophthalmitis. These findings confirmed the presence of a subclinical chronic corneal inflammation localized to the posterior stroma that should be related to the infectious process. Future studies might clarify pathological processes in the acute phase of postoperative endophthalmitis.
