The Effect of Intravitreally Injected Povidone-Iodine on <i>Staphylococcus epidermidis</i> in Rabbit Eyes

Abstract

These results suggest that 400_g of PVP-I can be tolerated intravitreally in rabbit eyes with no noticeable damage over a 14-day period. Results further showed that 100 microg of intravitreally injected PVP-I has no statistically significant effect on rabbit eyes injected intravitreally with 3030 CFU of S. epidermidis.
