Abstract

Purpose: To present an unusual case of recurrent multiple evanescent white dot syndrome (MEWDS) following the coronavirus 2019 (Covid-19) vaccination.

Methods: Review of the clinical, laboratory, photographic, and angiographic records of a patient with MEWDS.

Results: A 49-year-old female who had MEWDS nine years ago presented to our clinic with blurred vision in her left eye. These symptoms occurred 2 days following Covid-19 vaccination. Fundus examinations and diagnostic testing were consistent with recurrent MEWDS.

Conclusion: While rare, MEWDS can reoccur following Covid-19 vaccination.

Keywords: Covid-19; MEWDS; recurrent; vaccination.
