...This modality can generate cross-sectional images that are precisely registered to fundus features, map retinal layer thickness and generate rendered volumetric views of retinal structure similar to magnetic resonance images.(82) Studies examining the microstructure around PEDs in acute CSCR have found small RPE defects corresponding precisely to areas of leakage on fundus fluorescein angiography (FFA); the authors suggest that, in some cases, threedimensional OCT may obviate the need for FFA in identifying leakage spots....

...Since then, a variety of terms have been used to describe this disease entity, including idiopathic central serous choroidopathy,(3) central serous retinopathy,(2) diffuse retinal pigment epitheliopathy and the currently favoured term CSCR as first used by Gass in 1967.(2,3) This review aims to describe the epidemiology, risk factor associations, clinical presentations, pathophysiology and a brief overview of treatment options of CSCR....

...A case series reported 52% of participants had VAs of 6/9 or better on presentation.(3) Addition of a hyperopic lens can often correct this reduction in VA....

...In general, approximately 1/3 to 1/2 of patients have a second recurrence, often within a year of the first episode, while 10% have three or more recurrences when followed for up to 15 years.(3,68) In recurrent CSCR, the serous retinal detachment is often less bullous than in the acute phase, and is associated with a poorer visual prognosis, with reduced final VA, decreased stereopsis and colour vision....
