ICM reduced the incidence of culture-proven POE, CoNS in particular. In future, POE caused by rarer pathogens may become more prevalent due to reduction in the rate of commoner and more virulent pathogens with use of intracameral antibiotics. The moxifloxacin sensitivity of CONS did not show change with the use of ICM. Studies with larger population of POE will be more helpful to understand the trend better.
