Abstract
Preliminary data show that the incidence of eye damage in COVID-19 reaches 32%, with a diverse range of clinical manifestations. Both the anterior segment of the eye (conjunctivitis, keratoconjunctivitis) and the posterior segment (retinal vascular thrombosis, neuritis, neuroretinitis) can be affected. The infection in children is diagnosed much less frequently than in adults, so ophthalmic manifestations have hardly ever been studied.Purpose: to present cases of congenital eye lesions in children born to mothers who had COVID-19 during pregnancy.Material. We present 4 clinical cases of ocular manifestations in newborns born to such mothers.Results. 4 variants of congenital ocular manifestations are reported. Clinical manifestations are listed, and treatment tactics for such patients is proposed.Conclusion. In order to timely diagnose, and choose the optimal treatment tactics of such conditions, thorough collection of case history and the ophthalmologists’ awareness of ocular symptoms of COVID-19 manifestations is essential.
