Four patients had onset of symptoms during the active phase of COVID-19 infection. Four had bilateral and three had unilateral involvement. The manifestations ranged from mild to vision threatening. Vision threatening manifestations included infections: endogenous endophthalmitis, candida retinitis and tubercular choroidal abscess and bilateral pre-foveal hemorrhages. Milder manifestations included paracentral acute middle maculopathy, central serous chorio-retinopathy and voriconazole induced visual symptoms. Final visual acuity was 6\/36 or better in the four severe cases and 6\/9 or better in the mild cases.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This study highlights the retinal manifestations associated with COVID-19 infection and its sequelae. As these patients presented with an association with COVID-19 (either during or after recovery), ophthalmologists should be vigilant and screen for such entities in case of complaints of visual symptoms or in the presence of systemic sepsis. The outcomes can be good with prompt and aggressive management.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.4103\/ijo.ijo_403_21","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,5,2]],"date-time":"2021-05-02T11:32:28Z","timestamp":1619955148000},"page":"1275-1282","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1097\/lww.0000000000001000","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":44,"title":["Retinal manifestations in patients following COVID-19 infection: A consecutive case series"],"prefix":"10.4103","volume":"69","author":[{"given":"Mallika","family":"Goyal","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Retina-Uveitis Service, Department of Ophthalmology, Apollo Health City, Hyderabad, Telangana, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Somasheila I","family":"Murthy","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Uveitis Service, L.
