Since COVID-19 shows more severe courses in older patients, findings of decreased vessel density might not be due to past inflammatory processes, but rather represent normal age related alterations [41].

Even beyond acute infection the impact of SARS-CoV-2 on the eyes is enormously [32, 33], but Data on the long-term effect of COVID-19 on visual function and ocular anatomy after infection are lacking at the moment. First, transmission via the eyes has been described via the lacrimal duct into the nose and upper airways [13]. The buildup of blood raises pressure levels inside the eye, which can cause bleeding, swelling and fluid leaks. California Privacy Statement, However, patients in studys have severe systemic pre-existing conditions such as diabetes, hypertension, and obesity, which is seems more likely to be the cause, as CWS, hemorrhages and dilated vessels can be triggered by microangiopathies and inflammation.
