description Key Clinical Message Though COVID‐19 vaccination saved many lives all around the world, it has had many adverse effects including ophthalmologic side effects. It is important to report such adverse effects to provide timely diagnosis and management. Abstract Since the COVID‐19 global outbreak, many types of vaccines have been introduced.
