Article Synopsis
- Inadvertent scleral perforation is a recognized risk of strabismus surgery, which can result in serious complications like retinal detachment and endophthalmitis.
- Endophthalmitis is very rare after such surgeries, occurring at a rate of approximately 1 in 3,500 to 1 in 185,000 cases.
- A case study is presented where an adult developed Staphylococcus epidermidis endophthalmitis after strabismus surgery, successfully treated with intravitreal antibiotics and corticosteroids.
