"Post Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19) Reactivation of a Quiescent Unilateral Anterior Uveitis".

Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) can be associated with ophthalmic manifestations like conjunctivitis, retinal haemorrhages, retinal vascular occlusions, papillophlebitis, and Adie's syndrome. We herein report for a case of a unilateral acute anterior uveitis which was quiescent for 13 years and was reactivated post COVID-19 infection in a 43-year-old Asian Indian male. He had a past history of recurrent unilateral granulomatous anterior and intermediate uveitis in the right eye (RE), and all the investigations done 14 years ago were negative and had been on treatment with topical and oral steroids. He developed cataract 6 months later in the RE and underwent surgery. Patient was in remission for the past 13 years. Uveitis investigations for the present episode were all negative. Topical steroid and cycloplegic helped in resolution of the uveitis. This may be the first instance of reactivation of a quiescent unilateral anterior uveitis following COVID-19 infection.
