LitCovid-PD-FMA-UBERON
The conclusions shared in this review provide evidence and reassurance that the eye itself is unlikely to be a route for transmission, although this does not change the level of care required in clinical situations at present, given the potential to transmit the virus through airborne droplets and direct contact from the mouth and nose. One area that should be remembered, and already covered in this review, is that of the potential, albeit rare, for (kerato)conjunctivitis to present as the first sign of COVID‐19. All eye‐care practitioners must bear this in mind when triaging patients and considering how best to review, and potentially examine, or refer, a patient in this situation.
