#OMG: 9-year-old nearly goes blind from ‘COVID-eye’: ‘It was going to explode’

A 9-year-old UK boy named Zac Morey nearly lost his sight after contracting “COVID-eye,” an alleged side effect of the coronavirus. “His eye looked like it was going to explode,” the boy’s mom, Angela, told SWNS of the unfortunate COVID complication. The ocular calamity reportedly began after the Bristol, England, native and her five children tested positive for the disease on Dec. 16. Her son Zac reportedly experienced flu-like symptoms and spent his quarantine at home playing computer games. Despite testing negative at the doctor’s office on Dec. 22, the fifth grader reportedly developed pain in his left eye. Initially thinking it was caused by his constant screen time, Angela realized something was awry after the peeper ballooned up to alarming proportions over the next few days.
