Abstract

COVID-19 infection results in extensive organ dysfunction. Thrombotic problems linked to COVID-19 disease are common and can affect the retina. We will report a case of retina hemorrhage with possibility of linkage between COVID-19 infection and immunization to determine whether these abnormalities are causal or coincidental.

Keywords: Bangladesh; COVID‐19; ocular effect; retinal hemorrhage; vaccine.
