Orbital cellulitis following silicone-sponge scleral buckles
A 74-year-old man presented with exposed SB implant, purulent discharge, painful eye, and VA of 20/240 10 months after RD surgery with SB and radial sponge repair. IV cloxacillin, cefazolin, and metronidazole were initiated, and an operation for the removal of the buckle was undertaken. S. aureus was identified. He was followed for the next 12 months, with normal findings; his last VA was 20/40.
