Purpose: We evaluated the visual outcomes and changes in central macular thickness in patients with central serous chorioretinopathy who underwent selective retina therapy.
Methods: Patients diagnosed with central serous chorioretinopathy were included in the study. Fundus fluorescein angiography was performed before laser treatment. We reviewed the charts of 16 patients (17 eyes) in terms of age, sex, best-corrected visual acuity, intraocular pressure, slit lamp examination, the time from diagnosis to laser treatment, the site of laser treatment and side-effects. Optical coherence tomography was performed before laser treatment and 1 month later; the central macular thicknesses were compared.
Results: The average best-corrected visual acuity at diagnosis and 1 month after laser treatment were 0.20 and 0.12 (logMAR) respectively. The improvement was thus 0.08 (logMAR). The average central macular thickness decreased by 174.78 μm from 326.53 ± 59 μm at baseline to 151.75 ± 15 μm 1 month after selective retina therapy.
Conclusions: Selective laser therapy afforded favorable visual and structural outcomes and was not associated with a risk of scotoma or other untreatable side-effects.
