NCT01003639, Post-results.

Purpose: To describe a case series of postintravitreal injection, bacterial endophthalmitis heralded by hemorrhagic retinal vasculitis. Methods: Observational case series of three patients with a history of intravitreal injections for age-related macular degeneration at a tertiary referral center who presented with vision changes and eye pain that were eventually found to have bacterial endophthalmitis. Clinical course was then followed. Results: All patients developed bacterial endophthalmitis and hemorrhagic retinal vasculitis. Conclusion: These three cases highlight the importance of hemorrhagic retinal vasculitis as the presenting fundus finding of bacterial endophthalmitis and that this finding in a postinjection patient should be treated as endophthalmitis until proven otherwise.
