ABSTRACT

The Sars-Cov- 2 virus, the etiological agent of Covid-19, causes systemic and ocular manifestations in humans. Due to the global repercussion that the pandemic has had, the multisystemic damage it causes and the presence of ocular manifestations, which could be the presentation of the disease, it is decided to carry out the present work to offer a theoretical reference about the ocular manifestations of Covid- 19 and some therapeutic guidelines to consider. A bibliographic search was carried out in the Pubmed, Infomed, SciELO and academic Google databases, of articles in Spanish and English, which included new information related to the disease and its impact on eye health. Inflammatory and infectious processes of the visual apparatus, such as conjunctivitis and uveitis, are found with remarkable frequency. In the recovery stage, ocular findings associated with systemic immunosuppression, vasculitic and thromboembolic processes are presented. The indicated therapy does not usually differ from the conventional ones. First-line doctors play an essential role in the timely diagnosis of cases, since ocular manifestations can be the first sign of systemic disease.
