Risk Factors for Acute Endophthalmitis after Cataract Surgery
Ophthalmology, 03/31/09
Hatch WV et al. - The overall rates of suspected acute endophthalmitis are low but significantly higher in certain patient groups. This population-based analysis can be used as a benchmark for quality-improvement initiatives and can assist clinicians in educating their patients regarding the risks associated with cataract surgery. Future work is required to address the higher rate of endophthalmitis in men, those with capsular rupture, and the oldest patients undergoing cataract surgery.
