description Purpose: To compare postoperative complication rates of  intravitreal injections (IVIs) when performed in dedicated rooms versus performed in standard surgical rooms. Material and methods: Group 1 underwent IVIs in the operating room, Group 2 underwent IVIs in a dedicated room with high-efficiency particulate air filtering device (PFD) on mode (0.02 %). Postoperative complications, room particle counts were evaluated. Results: A total of 13354 injections consisting of 652 females (48 %) and 680 males (52 %) who had undergone intravitreal injection were reviewed. Endophthalmitis was observed in a total of 3 injections (0,022%), 2 patients in the operating room (0.02%), and 1 patient in the dedicated room. Conclusion: We found no difference between performing IVIs in a theatre versus in a dedicated room.
