Official Title: Contribution of Fast Molecular Bacterial Identification by Real-time PCR in Managing of Postoperative Acute Endophthalmitis

Brief Summary:

Endophthalmitis is a serious eye infection of exogenous origin (post-operational, post-traumatic) or endogenous origin (metastatic). This is a diagnostic and therapeutic emergency.

Each patient suffering from endophthalmitis must have immediately an ocular sampling, an intra ocular injection of antibiotics and a systemic antibiotic cover.

The etiological treatment will be adapted according to the infectious agent.
