This study reports two cases in European countries where Acute Macular Neuroretinopathy (AMN) presented as the initial stage of SARS-CoV-2 infection during the third wave of the pandemic. The cases were characterized by sudden onset of paracentral scotoma without systemic symptoms. Structural OCT revealed multifocal retinal hyperreflective infarctions, and OCT-Angiography confirmed the diagnosis by showing hypoperfusion of the deep capillary plexus corresponding to the hyperreflective lesions visible on structural OCT.
Introduction To report two cases of Acute Macular Neuroretinopathy (AMN) presented as the first stage of SARS-CoV-2 infection in two European countries during the third wave of pandemic viral infection in the early months of 2021. Observations A unilateral case of type 1 AMN in a man and a bilateral case of type 2 AMN in an otherwise heathy patients were reported. Sudden onset of paracentral scotoma characterized the cases with no systemic symptoms. Structural optical coherence tomography (OCT) shows multifocal middle and inner retinal hyperreflective infarctions. OCT-Angiography showed the presence of hypoperfusion of the deep capillary plexus (DCP) corresponding to the hyperreflective lesions visible on structural OCT, confirming the diagnosis. Conclusions and importance Type 1 and type 2 AMN may be the first stage of SARS-CoV-2 infection. We suggest testing all patients with AMN for SARS-CoV-2. In our cases, the natural history of AMN associated with SARS-CoV-2 infection was similar to already described cases of AMN.
