NEW ONSET OCULAR MANIFESTATIONS IN COVID 19 VACCINE RECIPIENTS

Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus-2, a novel coronavirus responsible for COVID-19, has been found in December 2019. The virus rapidly disseminated globally, prompting the WHO to declare a pandemic on 11 March 2020.COVID-19 is a severe respiratory infection characterized by dry cough, fever, & dyspnea. Although the majority of infected cases had mild symptoms & do not require hospitalization, a significant percentage of hospitalized cases present with severe hypoxemia & necessitate assisted ventilation in the intensive care unit. The clinical spectrum may vary from minor symptoms, such as fever & malaise, to severe hypoxic respiratory failure, multiorgan involvement, sepsis, & mortality. Prior studies have established a correlation among COVID-19 infection & ocular problems, whether direct or indirect. Conjunctivitis, orbital inflammatory illness, scleritis, phlyctenular keratoconjunctivitis, & retinal involvement have been extensively described as potential manifestations of COVID-19 infection. Consequently, it is essential to examine the correlation among COVID-19 immunization & ocular problems. A significant number of reports & retrospective case studies have documented potential harmful effects of COVID-19 vaccination roughly one year after the introduction of these vaccines While certain doctors and researchers have documented negative ocular effects associated with COVID-19 vaccines, most of these instances were presented as isolated case reports. The main objective of the research was to offer a comprehensive overview and assess the occurrence of ocular adverse events after to coronavirus disease 2019 vaccination.
