ABSTRACT

Purpose

To present an unusual case of recurrent multiple evanescent white dot syndrome (MEWDS) following the coronavirus 2019 (Covid-19) vaccination.

Methods

Review of the clinical, laboratory, photographic, and angiographic records of a patient with MEWDS.

Results

A 49-year-old female who had MEWDS nine years ago presented to our clinic with blurred vision in her left eye. These symptoms occurred 2 days following Covid-19 vaccination. Fundus examinations and diagnostic testing were consistent with recurrent MEWDS.

Conclusion

While rare, MEWDS can reoccur following Covid-19 vaccination.
