ABSTRACT
The novel coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), caused by the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2, has challenged the medical community. Several ocular manifestations secondary to COVID-19 have been documented. Prolonged hospitalization exposes the patient to various multiresistant bacteria making them prone to various secondary infections. This case series describes four cases of presumed fungal endogenous endophthalmitis in patients who recovered from COVID-19.
