  • Look Inside

A 89-year-old female underwent emergency sur-gery for intumescent cataract in her right eye. Shehad been suffering from diabetes mellitus andchronic dacryocystitis. We performed plannedextracapsular cataract extraction with a three-piece intraocular lens implantation. On day 3 aftersurgery, acute intraocular inflammation evelopedwith cell infiltration along the corneoscleral woundaccompanied by hypopyon and mutton-fat keraticprecipitates. Anterior chamber was tapped immedi-ately and irrigated with antibiotic solution. Cultureof the aqueous showed methicillin-resistant Sta-phylococcus aureus (MRSA) which was sensitive tominocycline. Treatment with systemic minocyclineeffectively controlled the inflammation. The detect-ed MRSA would have been present in the infectedlacrimal sac and penetrated into the corneoscleralwound after cataract surgery.
