Eyes might be an overlooked some contract COVID-19, expert says.

ABC News' Linsey Davis spotlights a woman who had severe eye pain after contracting COVID-19, and details how eye issues have been an overlooked symptom of the virus., thought she was recovering from COVID-19 after experiencing only mild symptoms of the infection for a few weeks in late February. It wasn’t long, however, before she began to experience a new, unexpected symptom: persistent eye pain.

With many people around the U.S. wearing masks, but not goggles or other eye-protective gear, throughout the pandemic, Dello Russo said that the eyes might be an overlooked way in which some people contract COVID-19.“The whites of people's eyes is a mucous membrane, just like you have in your mouth [and] nose,” Dello Russo said.

“We know that a range of symptoms can occur with COVID. It's not necessarily just shortness of breath and fever, especially with milder conditions,” said Dr. John Brownstein, an epidemiologist and ABC News contributor.A small case study published in JAMA Ophthalmology in March 2020 found that 12 of the 38 COVID-19 patients examined reported eye-related symptoms.

bad things come to my mind😀

dont worry once she gets cancer from all the plastic she will look at having covid as a vacation like I do

Springs2Mind Truly Interesting. Thanks for sharing 💕. I haven’t been wearing any protection for my eye...

This is not new info, but should have been talked about more.

😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂 Tired - So TIRED

Now people having eye pain 🤦🏽‍♂️🤦🏽‍♂️ when will the fear monger stop? Wear 4 masks a face shield and now industrial welding goggles. This overreach is insane

Let’s just go Level 11 Nuts.. About COVID19 It’s the next stage of stupidity, no doubt..

Def created in a lab with all these side effects

Been pointing this out for years. Look directly At someone there left eye will not be the same as right. Left will be lazyish

More bad news

Maybe Dr Fauci will reco blindfolders!

Auto start Street experts.

Mask with glasses, everyone!

מלאכי ג' וְהִכֵּיתִי אֶת-הָאָרֶץ חֵרֶם.

Nope, they have talked about that since last Spring. People are still contracting COVID19 at an alarming rate considering the prevention information campaigns. Just stop, can't fix stupid by now.

Is this article making a connection between eye pain as a symptom, and contracting covid via the eyes? It seems odd to me that an article focusing on eye pain in covid patients keeps doubling back to suggesting we wear eye protection to not contract it via eye membrane

She looks like she caught trans syndrome.

OMG I hope that is botox, ow, I would worry about what was wrong with her mouth.

Ummm... has America not been paying attention?

this dumb article gave me eye pain

Yeah, how about an update on PROMISED FPUCRETRO? You know Americans got shafted w/ ZERO FPUC from Aug-Dec of 2020 but we still had bills!!! How about asking when they will make us whole? CNN CBSNews CBNews CNNSotu NBCNews NBCPolitics BBC foxnews RonWyden AOC

Pock them eyes out and add Bleach , that`ell work.

wearing 5 masks, or a whole box, and then more over your eyes sounds awesome bring on the fear

Glasses w/ goggles over the top. 3 face masks and a bottle of hand sanitizer on you at all time or you should be fined $100.

People wearing glasses would not have known about this. Those that don’t do have an increased exposure risk. Face shields and masks, or even sunglasses & masks, make sense as protective measures.

Put a garbage bag over your head. Duct tape it securely around your neck as tight as possible. You’ll never need to worry about COVID ever again.

Obviously the mask orders need some tweaking.

Problem solved

Y’all get some life , everything is corona ، it makes me feel that Corona is the one and only disease 🦠left on this world 🌎!

You guys are pathetic.

Pock them eyes out and add Bleach , that`ell work.

Double eye patches are needed

I had a friend who got it through the eyes while bike riding. Lost most of his sight but has regained most of it with his doctors help

It’s true....you can catch COVID from dirty looks.

I owe you an apology to ever doubt your sincerity and professionalism. It’s was just like a dream to me when I received my first payment. After my second payment it became a reality now after several payments it has become a way of life. lisadonaldT

Here comes the blindfold legislation!

“With many people around the U.S. wearing masks, but not goggles or other eye-protective gear, throughout the pandemic, Dello Russo said that the eyes might be an overlooked way in which some people contract COVID-19.”

Gunna have to stop making eye contact in public if we want to stop the virus

My left eye been hurting before covid often, what this mean?

What about shoe size, hair color, amount of general body hair, etc

So much is still not know about this virus.

Go fist yourself.

Probably the Botox.

Face shields and goggles should be mandatory, and anyone who refuses is obviously not a liberal and should probably be ostracized from liberal social circles. If we make more mandatory PPE laws, it will be easier to pick out the conservatives.

👆🏻👆🏻👆🏻👆🏻 No doubt in my mind I got it this way.

Remember making fun of that guy who wore goggles one year ago.

Again with the 'experts says...' Find a new narrative this one is exhausted.

Eye can't believe it...

Overlooked? They have recommended not touching your eyes, nose mouth since the start. At least here.🤷‍♀️

Safety Glasses 24/7

It’s a symptom. I had it also. It’s more of a nuisance than anything. Suck it up.

I'm Ready !

Wear your mask over your eyes.... fauci said

Interesting post. I'm glad that I got vaccinated before having to wear a blindfold for protection.

Are you new ? Of course human EYES are a known entry point. Name a virologist who does not have scientific knowledge of this fact.

I wear my glasses everywhere once i heard Fauci say there are 5 areas the virus can be injested- mouth, 2 nostrils and two eyes.

Crazy getting crazier

Moses_Besouchet

Stopped being concerned. Decided to live. I am fine with the 99.998% survival rate.

Finally, I have been wearing goggles everywhere getting the weirdest looks.

Tf⁉️ u just say.... PLANDEMIC FoxNews

Lmao

Goggles for everyone! It'll just be two weeks

My eyes ached for a few days after my first dose

What a lot of people forget (or don't know) is that you can also get infected through your eyes, Virus needs moisture to enter, so your mouth, your nose, but also your eyes, (virus enters the body than through the tear duct)

That’s why the masks are pointless

Or maybe... the lips.

And don’t go to dinner parties as if covid doesn’t exist.

I had covid in November 2020 and had really bad eye pain .

An overlooked what? 🤔

Just so tragic. Ageusia/agnosia/tinnitus/hearing loss/eyepain/blurry vision/brain fog. I can go on... And smart people ‘afraid’ of vaccines? They ought to have their heads examined before they lose all their senses from Covid. GetVaccinated

Stupid stupid stupid song

COVID miracles: 3 healthy patients who nearly died from COVID-19 speak out'You've got to take me to the doctor, or I'm going to die.' These three COVID-19 patients were on the brink of death—and miraculously survived. They walked us through what it was like to contract the virus and the difficulties they faced in recovery. So glad these patients survived. This story another good reason to mask up, social distance, hand wash. No one should want to risk getting COVID. What really just pisses me off is how antimascar Republican idiots argue that covid-19 has a 99.98% survival rate blah blah blah, but I think there freedom overrules the fact that nobody deserves lifelong disability after surviving a virus like this.

COVID miracles: 3 healthy patients who nearly died from COVID-19 speak outWhat has been less visible in many cases is the lives doctors and other medical staff have saved -- sometimes in dramatic fashion and over the course of many months in some cases. In April 2020, Krakower, the psychiatry unit chief at Zucker Hillside Hospital, in Glen Oaks, New York, had chills so intense that he had to jump into the shower to warm up. Krakower first realized he might be experiencing symptoms of COVID-19 days later when he lost his sense of taste and smell. I’m not afraid. 👇
