RESULTS
Of the 215 patients hospitalized with COVID-19, 113 (53%) were male
(mean age: 54.27 years) and 102 (47%) were female (mean age: 58.71
years). One hundred forty-five (67%) patients were found to be positive
due to nasopharyngeal SARS-CoV-2 RT-PCR tests and they were defined as
laboratory-proven patients. In 176 (82%) patients, CT findings were
found to be significant for COVID-19.
During the examination, there were 15 patients (7.44%) who had at least
two findings of conjunctivitis-related findings such as conjunctival
congestion, conjunctival hyperemia, conjunctival follicle, chemosis and
epiphora, who were considered as having conjunctivitis. The ocular
findings during the visit to the patients are given in Table 1.
