Progressive Central Artery Occlusion, Ophthalmic Artery Occlusion, and Hemispheric Intracranial Thrombosis after COVID-19 mRNA Vaccine Application: Case Report
Thromboembolic events as a result of COVID-19 mRNA vaccination are a rare, though life-threatening complication. In this case report, we describe a 40-year-old female patient who developed central retinal artery and ophthalmic artery occlusion progressing to intracranial thrombosis 3 weeks after vaccination with the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine. Initially, she presented with progressive acute and painless unilateral vision loss in her left eye. Dilated fundoscopy of left eye showed macular whitening with sparing of the area of cilioretinal artery distribution. Labs revealed a normal erythrocyte sedimentation rate, C-re...

Systematic review of the relationship between Hollenhorst plaques and cerebrovascular events
CONCLUSION: The presence of asymptomatic retinal emboli indicates a risk of a cerebrovascular event when compared to patients with no plaques seen on fundoscopy. The evidence suggests that these patients warrant referral for medical optimization of cardiovascular risk factors. Currently, there is no recommendation to support carotid endarterectomy in patients with Hollenhorst plaques, or retinal emboli, and further studies are needed to assess this.PMID:36914563 | DOI:10.1177/17085381231163339

A literature review of hypertensive retinopathy: systemic correlations and new technologies
CONCLUSIONS: The eye is the only organ in the human body where changes in the blood vessels due to systemic hypertension can be studied in vivo. All doctors should be familiar with this disease because it has been largely demonstrated that signs of HR are correlated to patient's health and mortality. Researchers should develop a new common, standardized, and objective method to assess hypertensive retinal changes; new technologies may have a significant role in this field. This review takes most of the literature published so far, including the OCTA studies in order to stimulate new points of reference to standardize param...
