Detailed explanation-1: -Endogenous endophthalmitis: You may develop this type of endophthalmitis because you have a fungal or bacterial infection in another part of your body that then spreads to the eye through your blood. Endogenous endophthalmitis is less common than exogenous endophthalmitis.
Detailed explanation-2: -Endogenous endophthalmitis is a potentially blinding ocular infection resulting from hematogenous spread from a remote primary source.
