Abstrakt: Purpose: To report a case of acute macular neuroretinopathy (AMN) following SARS-CoV-2 vaccination.
Methods: Case report.
Results: An otherwise healthy 28-year-old white woman presented to an ophthalmology department with complaints of black paracentral vision scotomata on both eyes that appeared 2 days after receiving the first dose of Vaxzevria vaccine. Fundus examination revealed bilateral red brown petaloid lesions around the fovea. On spectral domain optical coherence tomography, a hyperreflective plaque between the outer plexiform and outer nuclear layers along with disruption of ellipsoid zone/interdigitation zone was observed. A diagnosis of AMN was made.
Conclusion: AMN may be an extremely rare adverse event of SARS-COV-2 vaccination, especially in patients with other risk factors.
Synopsis: An otherwise healthy 28-year-old white woman was diagnosed with AMN 2 days after SARS-CoV-2 vaccination.
