Cases and Method:This prospective study was made on 107 cases scheduled for cataract surgery. The series comprised 53 males and 54 females. The age averaged 74 years. Each case received 1.5% levofloxacin ophthalmic solution instilled three times daily starting 3 days before and until the day of surgery. Conjunctival sac was cultured before and after surgery. Results:Culture was positive in 60 out of 107 eyes before start of instillation. It was positive in 4 eyes(4%)after instillation, showing rate of sterilization in 56 out of 60 eyes(93%). There was no case of endophthalmitis after surgery or complication of levofloxacin instillation.
