Abstract. A 45-year-old male presented with blurring in both eyes since 2 weeks before. He had received abdominal surgery shortly before followed by intravenous hyperalimentation(IVH). He had been found to be allergic to penicillin 7 years before. His visual acuity was 0.9 right and 0.7 left. Both eyes were diagnosed with fungal endophthalmitis stage 2. The visual acuity improved following intravenous and peroral fluconazole but the medication had to be discontinued due to toxic epidermal necrosis. Intravenous miconazole was started after recurrence of endophthalmitis. It had to be switched to peroral itraconazole 8 days later due to drug eruption. Liver dysfunction developed 40 days later,necessitating switching to intravenous amphotericin B. It had to be discontinued 17 days later because of hypokalemia and vasculitis. Both eyes had received vitrectomy during the above period. The final visual acuity was hand motion right and 0.3 left. This case is unique in having manifested allergy or complications to four antifungal medications.
