Intralenticular infections.

Antecedent trauma resulting in endophthalmitis is not uncommon. However, primary intralenticular infection is a rare occurrence. Primary intralenticular fungal infection has not been previously reported. The authors present two cases: one of Paecilomyces infection and the other of Staphylococcus epidermidis infection limited to the crystalline lens. Both cases illustrate a delay in diagnosis.
