COVID-19 presenting as a non-arteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy.

We present a case of a 61-year-old woman with an atypical non-arteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy (NA-AION) as a unique manifestation of COVID-19. Furthermore, the patient worsened after Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine administration. Our findings suggest that NA-AION could result from microangiopathic/thrombotic events that may occur during SARS-CoV-2 infection and/or vaccination against COVID-19.
