Abstract

Central Retinal Vein Occlusion (CRVO) is a rare but potentially serious vascular event in the eye, leading to vision loss. We present a case of CRVO in a young, otherwise healthy patient diagnosed with COVID-19 in Pakistan. This case highlights the possible association between COVID-19 and ocular complications, especially in younger individuals who may not exhibit typical risk factors for retinal vascular diseases.
