COVID-19 Vaccine-Associated Ocular Adverse Effects: An Overview
CONCLUSIONS: Evidence regarding the ocular adverse effects does not outweigh the benefits of SARS-CoV-2 vaccination in patients with pre-existing systemic or ophthalmic diseases. This review provides insights into the possible temporal association between reported ocular adverse events and SARS-CoV-2 vaccines; however, further investigations are required to identify the link between potential causality and pathological mechanisms.PMID:36366386 | DOI:10.3390/vaccines10111879

A Sudden Rise of Patients with Acute Macular Neuroretinopathy during the COVID-19 Pandemic
The aim of this paper is to inform on the surge of cases of acute macular neuroretinopathy (AMN) – a rare disease characterized by the sudden onset of acute scotomas caused by ischemia of the retinal capillary plexus – during the COVID-19 pandemic. In 2021, during the COVID-19 pandemic, a sudden rise in patients with AMN was observed in our clinic. In this paper, 4 cases from a hospital in the south of the Netherlands are reported, all of which could directly be linked to a COVID-19 infection or vaccination against the corona virus. A search for similar cases in the PubMed database produced thirteen relevant reports, w...
