Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

One useful effect of early intravitreal corticotherapy is to diminish inflammatory complications after endophthalmitis, which may cause, at least in part, serious complications (retinal detachment, macular edema) which are, more than the infection, causes of the complications seen after acute endophthalmitis.
