ABSTRACT
Arbovirus infections pose a significant challenge to health systems. Awareness of the secondary central nervous system complications caused by these infections is on the increase, which may be a dilemma for their diagnosis and treatment. Arboviruses may alter the innate immunity mechanisms of the eye by damaging blood-retinal barriers. The objective of this review was to characterize the main ophthalmological findings of mosquito-borne diseases, such as dengue, zika and chikungunya, and their possible physiopathology. A bibliographic search about the topic was conducted in the database PubMed. Non-purulent conjunctivitis and keratitis were frequently found in zika and chikungunya patients. Dengue cases often presented macular edema and macular retinal hemorrhage, which caused vision reduction, as well as campimetric defects. Vasculitis and peripheral chorioretinitis could be asymptomatic if the macula was not involved. Thrombocytopenia and other physiopathological processes were also present. Oculomotor nerve palsy and optic neuritis as a late autoimmune response were rarely reported in the diseases studied. Recent reports refer to congenital zika syndrome, which causes multiple developmental abnormalities. Macular atrophy, bilateral macular pigmentation, optic nerve hypoplasia and cataract, among other disorders, were described in affected neonates. A variety of ocular lesions secondary to dengue, zika and chikungunya infection deserve recognition, for they damage visual function either temporarily or permanently.
