While the study claimed that 18% of COVID-19 patients with photophobia, meaning a sensitivity to light, while 16% had sore eyes and 17% had itchy eyes, according to the authors, "The most significant ocular symptom experienced by people suffering from COVID-19 was sore eyes. Other symptoms associated with other types of conjunctivitis, such as mucous discharge and gritty eyes linked to bacterial infection, did not reach significance. The term 'conjunctivitis' is too broad and should be used with caution".
