Lightning can strike twice: recurrent multiple evanescent white dot syndrome (MEWDS) following both COVID-19 vaccination and subsequent COVID-19 infection

Multiple evanescent white dot syndrome has been reported to occur following COVID-19 vaccination and also secondary to COVID-19 infection. Increasingly, patients are querying their risk from further vaccination against COVID-19, vaccination for other diseases (such as influenza) and the risk of dise...

description Multiple evanescent white dot syndrome has been reported to occur following COVID-19 vaccination and also secondary to COVID-19 infection. Increasingly, patients are querying their risk from further vaccination against COVID-19, vaccination for other diseases (such as influenza) and the risk of disease with COVID-19 infection itself. Here we report an interesting case in which the patient developed MEWDS following COVID vaccination, then, one year later, developed MEWDS in the fellow eye associated with COVID-19 infection.
