ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND: Currently, large populations have been vaccinated against COVID-19. The whole inactivated Sinopharm COVID-19 vaccine has been the main available COVID-19 vaccine in Iran. Ocular inflammatory reactions have been reported following vaccination. The present case reports aim to introduce four cases of uveitis after the Sinopharm vaccine administration. CASE PRESENTATION: Our first reported case is a 38-year-old woman with a positive medical history of inactive ulcerative colitis. Active uveitis had developed following the second dose of the COVID-19 vaccination. The remaining three cases were healthy individuals who developed the first episode of uveitis, after the COVID-19 vaccine administration. Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada syndrome was the final diagnosis in one of the aforementioned cases. All four patients demonstrated favorable responses to corticosteroid treatment. CONCLUSION: These observations are in line with incoming reports from all around the world and raise concerns about the possibility of post-vaccination uveitis development, especially in cases with a previous history of auto-immune systemic diseases or inactive uveitis.
