It has been suggested to result from idiopathic inflammation of retinal vascular and, possibly of the capillaries of the optic disc; however it is mandatory to work out a hypercoagulable state (hereditary or acquired thrombophilia factors), vasculitic syndromes, blood hyperviscosity, and other recognized systemic vascular inflammatory disorders. On left eye fundus examination, and color and red free retinographies, severe inflammation of the optic nerve head was observed accompanied by retinal venous vasodilatation and tortuosity, cotton-wool spots and moderate superficial hemorrhages in all four quadrants. 8 In addition to the respiratory tract infection and to these acute ocular manifestations, the current pandemic caused by the SARS-CoV-2 is associated with coagulation activation and a disproportionate systemic inflammatory response. ./cache/cord-309370-g8d3w7it.txt ./txt/cord-309370-g8d3w7it.txt
