The incidence of bacterial endophthalmitis has been 3-6% after cataract extraction in the eye camps of South India from 1961-75. During this time 50 791 cases were operated using systemic and topical chloramphenicol prophylaxis. This study evaluated the prophylactic intracameral injection of 50 microng of gentamicin in eye camp cataract extractions. Only 6 of 1626 patients treated with intracameral gentamicin at operation developed bacterial endophthalmitis, an incidence of 0-37%.
1961年至1975年期间，在印度南部的眼科营地中，白内障摘除术后细菌性眼内炎的发病率为3%至6%。在此期间，50791例手术使用了全身和局部氯霉素预防。本研究评估了在眼科营地白内障摘除术中前房内注射50微克庆大霉素的预防性效果。手术中接受前房内庆大霉素治疗的1626例患者中，仅6例发生细菌性眼内炎，发病率为0.37%。
