Abstract
We report here, a case of branch retinal artery occlusion (BRAO) in the left eye of a 76-year-old man that involved three arteries which was considered to be related to a COVID-19 infection due to high levels of blood cytokines and coagulation factors. Although the patient had hypertension and atherosclerosis, his hypertension had been well controlled for the past five years by regular antihypertensive medication. Twenty-five days after starting treatment with anti-inflammatory, anticoagulant and conservative therapy, the patient's biomarkers of inflammation and coagulation returned to normal and his vision improved. However, some visual field defects remained and were probably a consequence of low oxygen saturation.
