| Impact statement: This report documents a rare case of retinal hemorrhage in a 41-year-old male physician in Bangladesh, occurring either as a late complication of COVID-19 or following the AstraZeneca vaccination. The study suggests that the inflammatory cytokines and hypercoagulable states induced by the virus or vaccine can lead to significant ocular vascular disorders. It emphasizes the need for a dedicated international registry to track these unusual consequences, enabling ophthalmologists to better identify and treat at-risk individuals during the ongoing pandemic. | Collaboration: Other | Keywords: Retinal hemorrhage, COVID-19, post-COVID-19, COVID-19 vaccine, AstraZeneca, ocular complications, ophthalmology, Bangladesh |
