It is about an exceptional case of endogenous endophthalmitis secondary to a liver abscess due to Klebsiella pneumonia. The patient was a 50-year-old female, who was admitted for fever and right upper quadrant abdominal pain. Abdominal computed tomography showed an abscess measured 8 cm and located in segment 7 of the liver. It was treated by antibiotics and percutaneous transhepatic drainage. Pus sample was positive for Klebsiella pneumoniae. On day 3 after admission, patient complained of a red left eye with decreased vision.
