Abstract
A 25-year-old woman presented with redness and pain in both eyes after the first dose of the inactivated vaccine Corona Vac (Sinovac Biotech Ltd., Beijing, China). She had non granulomatous anterior segment inflammation and multiple creamy placoid lesions within the posterior pole and midperipheral retina bilaterally. Fluorescein angiography (FA) revealed early hypofluorescent and late hyperfluorescent lesions, while indocyanine green angiography (ICGA) demonstrated hypofluorescent lesions throughout all phases. A diagnosis of acute posterior multifocal placoid pigment epitheliopathy (APMPPE) was made, and the patient was started on a course of oral prednisolone that was tapered and the inflammation was completely resolved.
