Controls without COVID-19 infection were matched to COVID-19 infection cases by a ratio of 1:4 using frequency matching on age and gender. The primary end point of this study is the retinal and choroidal microvascular changes in school-age children during the COVID-19 pandemic. Secondary endpoint is the
