New research from Northwestern Medicine reveals link between long COVID and eye health
New research from Northwestern Medicine reveals link between long COVID and eye health

Patients with long COVID experienced a significant reduction in the density of blood vessels in the back of the eye, compared to healthy individuals.

The change in blood vessels in the deep part of the retina supports the hypothesis that long COVID affects similar blood vessels in other parts of the body, like the brain, which can potentially contribute to the symptoms of long COVID such as memory loss, brain fog and fatigue.

Retinal tissue and microvasculature loss in COVID-19 infection
Retinal tissue & microvasculature loss in COVID19 infection: Retinal volume was signif⬇️in outer 3 mm of macula in severe COVID19 group (p = 0.02). Total retinal vessel density was signif⬇️in severe COVID-19 vs normal/ mild COVID19 (p = 0.004 & 0.0057).
