Ocular Manifestations of Mucormycosis in COVID-19 Patients in a Tertiary Care Hospital in Tamilnadu
Abstract: This clinical study reports the various ocular manifestations of patients with mucormycosis in COVID-19 patients at a tertiary eye care center in Tamil Nadu. This was a single-center, hospital record based retrospective clinical study of 138 patients of both genders who were diagnosed to have mucormycosis between April 2021 and December 2021. We present this clinical study to stress the importance of early diagnosis and treatment of rhino-orbital mucormycosis and its complications and to emphasize the lesser number of exenteration done in our hospital.
