Aralık 2019’da bildirilen, SARS CoV-2 etkeninin sebep olduğu yeni tip Korona virüs hastalığı (COVID-19), etkenin
tutunduğu Anjiotensin Dönüştürücü Enzimin (ACE) tüm vücutta yaygın olarak bulunması sebebiyle, bir çok doku ve
organı etkileyebilmektedir. Pand emi süreci ilerledikçe oküler tutulumu gösteren yayınlar artmaktadır. Oküler tutulum
farklı klinik prezentasyonlarla olabilmektedir. Bu çalışmanın amacı COVID-19’un oküler tutulum ve komplikasyonları
patofizyolojisi ile gözden geçirmektir. Çalışmada Pubmed veri tabanı üzerinden Ocak 2020-Ekim 2020 döneminde
COVID-19’un göz bulgularını içeren makaleler taranarak bulgular değerlendirildi. Yapılan çalışmalarda hastalığın gözde
akut dönemde konjonktivit ve ön segment tutulumu ile presente olabilirken, sonraki süreçte ise mikrovasküler, trombotik,
iskemik ve inflamatuar lezyonlar ile arka segment tutulumu ön planda bildirilmektedir. Tüm bu bulgular COVID-19’un
uzun dönem etkileri olabilen ve uzun dönem takip gerektiren sistemik bir hastalık olduğunu düşündürmektedir.
The new Corona Virus Disease (COVID-19) which is caused by the SARS– CoV-2 agent and first reported in December
2019, has the potential to damage many tissues and organs, since the angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE), which the
agent attaches, is expressed widely in the human body. As the pandemic period continues, the scientific publishes
pointing ocular involvement have been increased. Ocular involvement can be in different clinical presentations. The aim
of this study is to overview the ocular involvement, complications with pathophysiology of COVID-19. In this study a
search from Pubmed database is carried out,, the articles including ocular findings of COVID-19 between January 2020-
October 2020, are evaluated.. The studies report that the disease presents with conjunctivitis at the acute phase, since
microvascular, thrombotic, ischemic and inflammatory lesions are evident in the ongoing period. All these findings could
denote that COVID-19 is a systemic disease with ongoing effects and can request long term follow up.
