Stenotrophomonas maltophilia endogenous endophthalmitis in an immunocompetent eye in Australia
S. maltophilia-associated EE is a rare clinical condition, especially in the absence of systemic symptoms. Despite the poor prognosis typically associated with endophthalmitis, this case resulted in a relatively good visual outcome (BCVA 6/18). This report highlights the necessity for further research to elucidate the epidemiology, risk factors, and optimal management strategies for this rare ocular condition.
