ABSTRACT
Covishield is in wide use in India with about 80% efficacy. Serious side effects are still under study. A 30-year-old female presented to us 7 days post-vaccination with a 5-day history of sudden diminution of vision in both eyes. The clinical findings were suggestive of the Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada (VKH) syndrome. She was treated with high-dose oral steroids. At this juncture, the association was unclear. However, it was justified by an acute flare-up of uveitis on day 2 post the second dose of vaccination despite ongoing steroids. A direct correlation of Harada-like syndrome with the Covishield vaccine is observed here
