摘要：
Melioidosis is an infectious disease caused by Burkholderia pseudomallei, a gram-negative bacillus. We report a case of endogenous endophthalmitis caused by B. pseudomallei that was treated with systemic and intravitreal ceftazidime. Finally, the patient achieved a final visual acuity of 20/60 without complication.
