A 47-year-old male patient presented to our clinic with the complaints of eye pain, reduced vision and redness in the right eye three days after administration of the second dose of the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine. The patient was diagnosed with uveitis associated with the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine and inflammatory glaucoma due to the uveitis. In addition, an erythematous, morbilliform rash had developed three days after the first dose of the vaccine. This is the first case report in the literature to show both skin and eye side effects after the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine.
