Resumen
Purpose: The severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 and its associated infection known as COVID-19
have resulted in a global pandemic. Ocular manifestations of COVID-19 are nonspecific and include hyperemia, chemosis, epiphora, secretions, and eyelid edema. There is a paucity in the literature regarding COVID-19
related inflammatory syndromes which may also include ocular manifestations.
Observations: In pediatric patients, conjunctivitis has been recently reported in association with a multisystem
inflammatory condition related to COVID-19 that shares features with Kawasaki disease and toxic shock syndrome. We describe the clinical course of an adult patient with symptoms and signs consistent with a Kawasakilike syndrome.
