Аннотация
BACKGROUND: The coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic broke out in March 2020, causing tremendous damage to public health and more than 6 million deaths. After authorization for the emergency use of COVID-19 vaccines, various adverse events have been reported, including optic neuritis. COVID-19 vaccination was implemented in Taiwan in March 2021.
METHODS: We report patients who developed optic neuritis after COVID-19 vaccination at one university-affiliated tertiary hospital, between March 2021 and December 2022. We also provided a literature review of optic neuritis cases after COVID-19 vaccination.
RESULTS: Five patients who developed optic neuritis after COVID-19 vaccination have been identified. Four brands of vaccine used were as follows: Moderna, Pfizer-BioNTech, Medigen, and Oxford AstraZeneca. Optic neuritis developed after the first dose of vaccination in 4 patients, whereas in 1 patient, it developed after the second shot. In the 3 patients with poor initial visual acuity, intravenous methylprednisolone pulse therapy achieved substantial improvement.
CONCLUSIONS: Optic neuritis is a rare but potentially vision-threatening adverse effect of COVID-19 vaccination. We suggest early diagnosis and treatment to maximize visual outcomes.
