Ophthalmic manifestations and optic nerve functions in COVID-19: a prospective case series in Pakistani population

One third of our study population had ocular or neuro-ophthalmic involvement. Although severity of ophthalmic involvement was related to severity of systemic COVID-19 illness and concomitant comorbid disease, ocular involvement was also reported in patients with mild systemic disease or in vaccinated patients. Prolong follow up of these patients should be considered to prevent visual complications.

Abstract

One third of our study population had ocular or neuro-ophthalmic involvement. Although severity of ophthalmic involvement was related to severity of systemic COVID-19 illness and concomitant comorbid disease, ocular involvement was also reported in patients with mild systemic disease or in vaccinated patients. Prolong follow up of these patients should be considered to prevent visual complications.
