Successful Clinical Outcome of Vancomycin-induced Hemorrhagic Occlusive Retinal Vasculitis

We present a case of a patient that experienced severe hemorrhagic occlusive retinal vasculitis secondary to injection of 1.0 mg/0.1 ml of intracameral vancomycin for endophthalmitis prophylaxis after an uneventful cataract surgery. The case is especially unique in that our patient ended up maintaining 20/25 vision with an ocular disease that is typically visually threatening. This may be due to the aggressive administration of periocular and oral steroids combined with scheduled anti-VEGF injections that were later transitioned into a treat and extend regimen.
