Relative efficacy of intracameral moxifloxacin injection methods.

Purpose: To determine the amount of moxifloxacin remaining in the anterior chamber (AC), immediately after its injection using 3 current injection methods, assuming mixing and fluid exchange with the AC contents during injection of the drug, and to determine the most desirable injection method.

Setting: Department of Ophthalmology and Vision Sciences and Institute of Biomedical Engineering, University of Toronto, Toronto, Canada.

Design: Mathematical modeling.

Bilateral simultaneous postoperative endophthalmitis: review of cases reported over the past 50 years.

A detailed retrospective analysis and literature review were conducted for all previously published reports of bilateral simultaneous postoperative endophthalmitis (BSPOE) since 1970. There have been 7 (9, with 2 currently being reported elsewhere) cases of BSPOE after immediately sequential bilateral cataract surgery (ISBCS) reported over 50 years. Generally, in these cases, the surgical protocol recommended by the International Society of Bilateral Cataract Surgeons ( i SBCS) was breached or uncertain.
