Paracentral acute middle maculopathy in the setting of central retinal artery occlusion following COVID-19 diagnosis.
CONCLUSION: This is the first case that reports PAMM in the setting of CRAO following COVID-19 diagnosis. Viral induced microangiopathy may involve in the development of CRAO in our patient without a hypercoagulable state and additional risk factors. Physicians should be vigilant to seek for retinal evaluation in patients with significant visual loss even after a mild COVID-19 history.
