Abstract
Endogenous Klebsiella Pneumoniae endophthalmitis is considered a rare complication of gram negative sepsis. Despite immediate management, the visual outcome of patients with endogenous K. Pneumoniae endophthalmitis is poor ranging from hand motion visualization to evisceration or enucleation of the eye. To the best of our knowledge, we present the first reported case in Greece and among the few reported cases in Europe of a diabetic patient with endogenous K. Pneumoniae endophthalmitis.
