What happens during the disease - other endophthalmitis
Патогенез эндофтальмита при экзогенном инфицировании многоплановый. В случае нарушения целостности роговицы или склеры микроорганизмы проникают внутрь стекловидного тела, где беспрепятственно размножаются. Образуется внутриглазной очаг инфекции, который быстро распространяется на все оболочки глаза. В свою очередь, нарушение иммунологической изолированности глаза сопровождается аутоиммунной воспалительной реакцией, способствующей ослаблению сопротивляемости инфекции, и агрессивному течению эндофтальмита и панофтальмита.
Образующийся гнойный экссудат приводит к увеиту, расплавлению сосудистой и сетчатой оболочек, инкапсуляции с образованием шварт. Швартообразование в последующем вызывает тракции и отслойку сетчатки с исходом в гипотензию и атрофию глазного яблока.
