Endophthalmitis is a devastating complication occurring in a few cases after cataract surgery but resulting in profound morbidity. Thus every eye surgeon should remain vigilant to avoid it. The options of povidone iodine application to skin and conjunctiva, suturing the wound to make it leak proof, use of IOL injectors, intracameral cefuroxime or moxifloxacin, post operative levofloxacin/ gatifloxacin / moxifloxacin has profoundly reduced the incidence of endophthalmitis.
