Acute Acanthamoeba panophthalmitis following intravitreal drug injection
<i>Acanthamoeba</i> panophthalmitis is a rare disease that is difficult to diagnose. In most cases of <i>Acanthamoeba</i> eye infection, the cornea is primarily affected. We report a case of post-procedural <i>Acanthamoeba</i> panophthalmitis after intravitreal injection of anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (anti-VEGF).
