In this current case series, all Coronavirus disease 2019 patients had predominant ophthalmological presentation. Only one patient sough care for concomitant respiratory symptoms. We reported herein 2 cases with cranial oculomotor nerve palsy, one patient with confirmed diagnosis of branch retinal vein occlusion, and the last one patient presenting for acute kareto-conjunctivitis with several recurrences, which was unsuccessfully treated with steroids and requiring cliclosporin. These case series highlights the importance of collecting a careful history of ocular presentation, including exposures to possible infected patients with SARS-CoV-2. This this will lead to an early diagnosis and treatment and to make appropriate infection control measures.
