Abstract
A higher capacity of adhesion to the intraocular lens and formation of biofilms as well as greater resistance to antibiotics were found in S epidermidis strains causing postcataract endophthalmitis. The usefulness of such virulence and antibiotic resistance markers warrants further evaluation for prevention, treatment, and prognostic evaluation of S epidermidis endophthalmitis.
