COVID-19-associated coagulopathy (CAC) has led to an increase in the incidence of large vessel stroke and cryptogenic shock. We present a case of a 30-year-old COVID-19-positive patient who developed an internal carotid artery (ICA) thrombosis, which led to ischemic stroke, aphasia, and unilateral blindness. Ophthalmic artery occlusion (OAO) was found to be the cause of vision loss. We thereby aim to highlight the detailed ophthalmic manifestations of OAO with features of posterior ciliary artery occlusion (PCAO) in this patient with proven ICA thrombosis.
COVID-19 相关的凝血病(CAC)导致大血管中风和隐源性休克的发病率增加。我们报告了一例 COVID-19 阳性的 30 岁患者,该患者发生了颈内动脉(ICA)血栓形成,导致缺血性中风、失语和单侧失明。发现眼动脉闭塞(OAO)是视力丧失的原因。因此,我们旨在通过这例已证实的 ICA 血栓形成患者,强调 OAO 的详细眼部表现,其特征为睫状后动脉闭塞(PCAO)。
