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.
