Moreover, official recommendations of ophthalmological societies were systematically reviewed, with a focus on the American Academy of Ophthalmology (AAO) and the Royal College of Ophthalmologists (RCOphth).<\/jats:p><jats:p>\n          Results As of April 16, 2020, in total, 21 peer-reviewed articles on the ophthalmological aspects of COVID-19 were identified. Of these, 12 (57.1%) were from Asia, 6 (28.6%) from the United States of America, and 3 (14.3%) from Europe. There were 5 (23.8%) original studies, 10 (47.6%) letters, 3 (14.2%) case reports, and 3 (14.2%) reviews. These articles could be classified into the topics \u201cModes and prevention of (ocular) transmission\u201d, \u201cOphthalmological manifestations of COVID-19\u201d, \u201cClinical guidance concerning ophthalmological practice during the COVID-19 pandemic\u201d, and \u201cPractical recommendations for clinical infrastructure\u201d. Practical recommendations could be extracted from official statements of the AAO and the RCOphth.<\/jats:p><jats:p>\n          Conclusion Within a short period, a growing body of articles has started to elucidate the ophthalmological implications of COVID-19. As the eye can represent a route of infection (actively via tears and passively via the nasoacrimal duct), ophthalmological care has to undergo substantial modifications during this pandemic. In the eye, COVID-19 can manifest as keratoconjunctivitis.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1055\/a-1164-9381","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,5,6]],"date-time":"2020-05-06T22:50:41Z","timestamp":1588805441000},"page":"675-680","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":41,"title":["COVID-19: Ophthalmological Aspects of the SARS-CoV 2 Global Pandemic"],"prefix":"10.1055","volume":"237","author":[{"given":"Jakob","family":"Siedlecki","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Augenklinik der LMU, Klinikum der Universit\u00e4t M\u00fcnchen, M\u00fcnchen, Germany"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Victor","family":"Brantl","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Augenklinik der LMU, Klinikum der Universit\u00e4t M\u00fcnchen, M\u00fcnchen, Germany"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Benedikt","family":"Schworm","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Augenklinik der LMU, Klinikum der Universit\u00e4t M\u00fcnchen, M\u00fcnchen, Germany"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Wolfgang Johann","family":"Mayer","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Augenklinik der LMU, Klinikum der Universit\u00e4t M\u00fcnchen, M\u00fcnchen, Germany"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Maximilian","family":"Gerhardt","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Augenklinik der LMU, Klinikum der Universit\u00e4t M\u00fcnchen, M\u00fcnchen, Germany"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Stylianos","family":"Michalakis","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Augenklinik der LMU, Klinikum der Universit\u00e4t M\u00fcnchen, M\u00fcnchen, Germany"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Thomas","family":"Kreutzer","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Augenklinik der LMU, Klinikum der Universit\u00e4t M\u00fcnchen, M\u00fcnchen, Germany"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Siegfried","family":"Priglinger","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Augenklinik der LMU, Klinikum der Universit\u00e4t M\u00fcnchen, M\u00fcnchen, Germany"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"194","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2020,5,6]]},"container-title":["Klinische Monatsbl\u00e4tter f\u00fcr Augenheilkunde"],"original-title":[],"language":"de","link":[{"URL":"http:\/\/www.thieme-connect.de\/products\/ejournals\/pdf\/10.1055\/a-1164-9381.pdf","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2020,5,20]],"date-time":"2020-05-20T22:33:33Z","timestamp":1590014013000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"http:\/\/www.thieme-connect.de\/DOI\/DOI?10.1055\/a-1164-9381"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2020,5]]},"references-count":0,"journal-issue":{"issue":"05","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2020,5,20]]},"published-print":{"date-parts":[[2020,5]]}},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1055\/a-1164-9381","relation":{},"ISSN":["0023-2165","1439-3999"],"issn-type":[{"value":"0023-2165","type":"print"},{"value":"1439-3999","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2020,5]]}}}
