Neuro-Ophthalmic Presentations of Ocular Cranial Nerve Palsies

Emily Paul

Cranial nerve irregularities, including anosmia and hypogeusia, have been accounted for in relationship with COVID-19, and are acknowledged indications of disease. In light of these discoveries, it is proposed that the olfactory bulb might fill in as a passage point for SARS-CoV-2 into the sensory system. Albeit more uncommon, there have been reports of separated oculomotor, trochlear, and abducens nerve paralyses in patients with COVID-19.
