Covid-19 infection has been declared a pandemic by the World Health Organization. We present a unique case of a middle-aged gentleman, who recovered from asymptomatic Covid-19 infection and presented again with delayed stroke. He had vision loss secondary to internal carotid artery occlusion in the absence of neurological symptoms. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first case that describes cerebrovascular stroke due to delayed large vessel occlusion secondary to Covid-19 infection presenting as monocular vision loss.
新型冠状病毒肺炎（Covid-19）感染已被世界卫生组织宣布为大流行病。我们报告了一例独特病例，一名中年男性从无症状的Covid-19感染中康复后，再次出现延迟性中风。他在没有神经症状的情况下，因颈内动脉闭塞继发视力丧失。据我们所知，这是首例描述因Covid-19感染继发延迟性大血管闭塞导致脑血管中风并表现为单眼视力丧失的病例。
