Ocular manifestations in patients with COVID-19

CONCLUSION: Our findings of the anterior segment are commonly known, although not specific for COVID-19. Various vascular fundus abnormalities were found in the study; however, it is unclear whether these were correlated to systemic comorbidities or whether they were caused or exacerbated by COVID-19. This study suggests that the risk of viral transmission via tears is low.PMID:35089415 | PMC:PMC8796747 | DOI:10.1007/s00347-022-01581-y
