Abducens and Trochlear Nerve Palsies After COVID-19 Vaccination: Report of Two Cases

Open publisher page 6 citations

Abstract

The authors report two cases of an abducens palsy and a trochlear nerve palsy, respectively, in two patients who received a coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccine 2 weeks previously. Given the lack of other symptoms, normal test results, and spontaneous resolution of the diplopia, a likely association with the COVID-19 vaccine was suggested. [ J Pediatr Ophthalmol Strabismus . 2022;59(5):e50–e53.]
