Purpose:
We report a rare presentation of neuroretinitis following vaccination with inactivated virion vaccine (COVAXIN).
Methods:
Interventional Case Report.
Observation:
A 14-year-old female presented with sudden unilateral vision loss 3 days following COVID-19 vaccination. The clinical and radiological evaluation was consistent with classical neuroretinitis; the serological and immunological workup was negative. The patient responded well to the pulse steroid therapy and regained complete vision.
Conclusion:
The COVID-19 vaccine related adverse ocular events are beginning to emerge slowly and thus warrants close monitoring of all such cases. Also, ophthalmologists should be encouraged to seek vaccination status of patients presenting with inflammatory ocular conditions.
