ABSTRACT
The group G streptococcal endocarditis is a rare form of infective endocarditis when present, and it is associated with serious neurological complications.

We report a case of group G streptococcal endocarditis which presented clinically as endophthalmitis unrelated to trauma or surgery in a 85-year-old diabetic man.
