Conjunctivitis and Covid-19

I recently saw a report that conjunctivitis, inflammation over the white part of the eye, can be the main sign of Covid-19. Many types of conjunctivitis are colloquially called “pink eye.” I believe that this was a case report of a few patients in Italy, so it is not widely known, but it is an interesting reminder that ophthalmology is important in understanding a wide variety of diseases!
