Abstract. Purpose:To report the outcome of treatment for endophthalmitis after cataract surgery and patients' satisfaction. Cases and Method:This retrospective study was made on 9 eyes of 9 patients who were treated for postoperative endophthalmitis during the past 11 years. Patients' evaluation was collected by questionnaire. Results:Interval between cataract surgery and ophthalmitis was less than 7 days in 5 cases,7 days to one month in one,and over one month in three. All cases were treated by removal of intraocular lens and vitrectomy. Surgery was performed within 3 days of onset in 6 cases,and later than 2 weeks in 3. There was a tendency for surgery to be performed later in subacute or chronic cases. Early surgery resulted in better visual outcome. There is no case of conflict between patient and surgeon. Conclusion:Postoperative endophthalmitis ought to be performed as early as possible for better visual outcome.
