Intravitreal corticosteroids as an adjunct in the treatment of bacterial and fungal endophthalmitis. A review.

J A Schulman1, G A Peyman.   

Abstract

The use of intravitreal corticosteroids in the management of endophthalmitis remains controversial. Several clinical and experimental reports are reviewed that suggest that intravitreal corticosteroid therapy, when used in conjunction with antibiotics with and without vitrectomy, reduces the intraocular inflammatory process and secondary complications associated with microbial endophthalmitis.
