  • Beschreibung: <jats:p>Endophthalmitis is one of the most feared complications of ocular trauma or surgery. It is a complex pathogen- and host-mediated process that often results in significant vision loss. This review summarizes data from experimental models of staphylococcal endophthalmitis that address the host’s immune response to intraocular staphylococci and those that investigate disease pathogenesis.</jats:p>
