Ophthalmic Manifestation of COVID-19 disease

ABSTRACT

A coronavirus is the novel coronavirus known as severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV2). It's a nonsegmented enveloped positive sense RNA virus with 82 percent genetic similarity to the SARS coronavirus (SARSCoV), which sparked an outbreak in early 2003. Respiratory droplets are assumed to be the primary mechanism of transmission because the virus is found in respiratory secretions. Conjunctival transmission and aerosol transmission have also been proposed, however they are also problematic. Fever, tiredness, and dry mouth are the three most prevalent COVID19 clinical symptoms. In several patients, however, conjunctivitis was the initial symptom. The disease's respiratory complications have been the focus of diagnostic and therapeutic efforts, However, a number of ocular concerns have surfaced. Infected patients' tears have been confirmed to contain SARSCov2 RNA, and studies indicate that the virus is spreading. For viral transmission, the ocular surface could serve as both an entry point and a reservoir. COVID19 has been linked to mild conjunctivitis, which can be the disease's first and only symptom. Ocular symptoms can be treated with observation without therapy, antibacterial eye drops, antiviral eye drops, and antiallergic eye drops, according to clinical trials..As a result, the only recommended treatment for COVID19related ocular manifestations is close observation cough. The motivation behind this examination was to investigate the event of visual appearances in patients who had been determined to have Covid illness 2019 (Coronavirus) because of serious intense respiratory condition. 2(SARS-CoV-2). © The Electrochemical Society
