Candida endophthalmitis is a serious condition and can lead to loss of vision and you must make an appointment with an Ophthalmologist to diagnose this condition.

Candida endophthalmitis is rare and typically associated with fungus actually in the blood rather than just oral or skin based candida infections. It is much more likely that the floaters are from another cause, so an examination by an ophthalmologist ASAP is indicated. If candida endophthalmitis is diagnosed, the treatment is usually a combination of IV and intraocular injections of antifungals.
