Aspergillus niger endophthalmitis after cataract surgery. She presented 9 weeks after extracapsular cataract extraction with a black growth covering the cornea and moderate echoes in the vitreous on ultrasonography. After microbiological confirmation of fungal endophthalmitis, the patient received intravitreal amphoterecin B 5 μg, topical natamycin 5% hourly, atropine 1% 3 times, and oral antifungal therapy. The patient was told the visual prognosis and was advised to have penetrating keratoplasty and vitrectomy, which she refused. |
