Summary:

Objective: using clinical examples, to analyze the connections and features of the course of ophthalmic pathology in COVID-19 patients. We observed changes on the part of the visual organ in patients who had previously been ill with COVID-19 in various degrees of severity who sought ophthalmological help. The report is illustrated by the most striking clinical examples, on the basis of which we proposed the following mechanisms of the effect of coronavirus infection on the eye tissue: 1) activation and generalization of viral infections of the eyes, in particular herpetic, adenovirus, mollusk contagious; 2) ocular vascular disorders in the form of hemophthalmos, cavernous sinus thrombosis with corresponding ophthalmological manifestations; 3) oculomotor disorders due to neuropathy (we present a case of the development of non-friendly strabismus); 4) aggravation of chronic diseases; 5) visual disorders against the background of asthenic syndrome; 6) side effects from the organ of vision against the background of therapy for COVID-19. Based on the demonstrated examples, it is shown that the functional and organic disorders of the visual organ caused by COVID-19 are quite diverse.
