ABSTRACT
The coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic has disproportionately affected racial and ethnic minorities in the United States. Although recent meta-analyses have identified the prevalence of ocular manifestations in severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 infection, no studies with these potential findings have been implemented in examining ophthalmic disparities in racial and ethnic minorities. It is additionally clear that patient access to eye care from coronavirus disease 2019 has been disproportionate in underserved communities. Large public hospitals and urban academic medical centers provide a unique opportunity to further study ocular disease presentation and health disparities from coronavirus disease 2019 in these populations.
