Prevention of Staphylococcus epidermidis Endophthalmitis by Different Moxifloxacin Prophylaxis Routes.

Background: To investigate postoperative endophthalmitis (POE) prevention by moxifloxacin prophylaxis.

Methods: After crystalline lens removal and intraocular lens (IOL) implantation, 18 rabbit eyes were injected intracameral with different coagulase negative staphylococci (CNS) inoculums in order to determine the minimum inoculum required for a reproducible POE model. Another 28 similar eyes were divided into Group A, which was implanted with standard IOLs with intracameral injection of 100 μg/0.

Magnetic resonance imaging of luxury perfusion of the optic nerve head in anterior ischemic optic neuropathy.

A 49-year-old woman with painless reduction in visual acuity in her left eye was found to have nonarteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy (NAION). Fluorescein angiography revealed optic disc capillary leakage consistent with "luxury perfusion." Contrast-enhanced FLAIR magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed marked enhancement of the left optic disc.
