Relevant laboratory tests and procedures are available in the appropriate section. Additional information: Patient received both of the Pfizer Covid 19 vaccine doses (each dose received in different arms) during pregnancy sometime in the Fall of 2022. Shortly after the vaccines, patient started experiencing slight abnormality in vision in her left eye. There is a question if it will be permanent or temporary. Never in her life have she had vision problems and she never had vision problems with previous pregnancies. She had no vision problems during her first trimester, but it started in 2nd trimester rolling into 3rd trimester sometime after the vaccination. The spotting or flickering/flashing of left eye was noticed after the vaccine, never before. They checked thyroid levels, EKG, heart, and those were normal. Patient saw an eye doctor after pregnancy and her vision was not great and she was told something was strained. She also had problems with high blood pressure and blood sugar elevations, although not highly intense, during pregnancy before the vaccination and both had to be "on watch" or monitored more after vaccination, especially the blood pressure, during her second and third trimester. Her blood pressure did not spiral out of control, but max blood pressure was ~150 range for the top number but was not super severe. Her blood pressure was not high enough to cause changes in her vision. All her blood pressure readings and medical report are available at her OB/GYN. Referred to HCP for further discussion and recommendations. She clarified that she started seeing spots in her left eye and flickering and flashes. She also reported this to the OBGYN. They did not give her a direct answer on what was causing her symptoms, but the patient felt it was due to the vaccines.
