The correct breakdown of the medical term endophthalmitis is: (1) end:- inside; (2) opthalm:- eye; and (3) itis:- inflammation.

Endophthalmitis is the inflammation of the fluids of the eyes, i.e. aqueous and vitreous. The inflammation happens due to infection of the bacteria (Staphylococcus species, Streptococcus species, Gram-negative bacteria) or fungi (Candida, Aspergillus).

Inflammation is the type of immune response generated due to invasion of some microorganisms. Various immune cells and blood cells accumulate at the site of inflammation. The symptoms of inflammation are: redness, swelling, itching, pain, etc. All these symptoms are indicative of the body's healing process.
