Intravitreal linezolid in the management of vancomycin-resistant enterococcal endophthalmitis

Purpose: Linezolid is a synthetic antibiotic, the first of the oxazolidinone class, used for the treatment of infections caused by multi-resistant bacteria including Streptococcus, methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE). We report on a case of e...
