摘要
Scleral inflammation and necrosis are rare but serious complications of ocular surgery. We present a case of Pseudomonas infectious scleritis following strabismus surgery with an exuberant, presumably sterile endophthalmitis in an immunocompromised 62-year-old man that was responsive to topical and oral antibiotics.
