A young man with severe endophthalmitis caused by B. cereus is described following a trauma with an intraocular foreign body. Although this organism was isolated from the aqueous with 18 hours and specific antibiotic therapy instituted, the eye subsequently lost all function and had to be enucleated because of severe pain. An extremely rapidly developing corneal ring abscess seems to be the hallmark of an intraocular infection with B. cereus organisms.
