We present the case of a 23-year-old young man with left-eye abducens nerve palsy following the COVID-19 vaccination. Given the temporal relationship between vaccination and the onset of symptoms, the lack of systemic history, and unremarkable magnetic resonance imaging, the patient's abducens nerve palsy was related to his vaccination. The ophthalmologist should be aware of this neurotropic sequela of COVID-19 vaccination in young adults.
我们报告了一例23岁青年男性在接种新冠疫苗后出现左眼外展神经麻痹的病例。鉴于接种疫苗与症状发作之间的时间关系、缺乏全身病史以及磁共振成像无异常,该患者的外展神经麻痹与接种疫苗有关。眼科医生应了解新冠疫苗接种在年轻成年人中出现的这种神经嗜性后遗症。
