Multiple Evanescent White Dot Syndrome Developing Three Days following Administration of mRNA-1273 Booster Vaccine: Case Report
Little is known about the potential ocular adverse events following mRNA-1273 vaccine. We aimed to report a case of multiple evanescent white dot syndrome (MEWDS) developing 3 days following the administration of mRNA-1273 vaccine booster. A 71-year-old white myopic female presented with complaints...

description | Little is known about the potential ocular adverse events following mRNA-1273 vaccine. We aimed to report a case of multiple evanescent white dot syndrome (MEWDS) developing 3 days following the administration of mRNA-1273 vaccine booster. A 71-year-old white myopic female presented with complaints of seeing “pulsating light” and scotoma with her left eye that started about 3 days following mRNA-1273 vaccine booster administration. The patient was found to have multiple scattered white-yellow outer retinal lesions on dilated fundus exam of the left eye. Visual symptoms and exam findings continued to improve without any intervention confirming a short-lived and self-limiting disease course. Clinical presentation was consistent with a clinical diagnosis of MEWDS. Ophthalmologists need to take detailed vaccination history in patients presenting with MEWDS. |
