General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hello and thanks for writing.

I can understand your concern and would try to help you in the best possible way.It is unusual in viral pneumonia to have vision problems. However if your mother had seizures followed by vision problems then it may indicate a neurological issue.
I suggest that you undergo a neurological workup which may include a complete medical history, neurological examination including eye checkup and few tests to get to a diagnosis.
Once a diagnosis is made then a comprehensive management plan may be started for you.
