Brief Summary  

The current study, the Endophthalmitis Management Study is a prospective randomized clinical trial. In this study, cases of post-operative endophthalmitis will be graded in the retina clinic based on a pre-decided inflammatory score. Based on the score, the patients will be advised either a vitreous tap procedure or a pars plana vitrectomy. In each group patients will be randomized to either the standard empirical intravitreal injection combination of vancomycin+ceftazidime  or vancomycin+imipenem. In cases where microbiologic work up reveals fungal elements, the patients will be randomized to receive either Amphotericin B or Voriconazole. The patients will be followed up as per set schedule till 3 months. The cases will be evaluated for the primary and secondary outcome measures as described in the protocol.
