Central Serous Chorioretinopathy: Emphasizing Spectral-domain Optical Coherence Tomography Features and Pigment Epithelial Detachment.

This study employs spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) to examine features of central serous chorioretinopathy (CSCR), specifically pigment epithelial detachment (PED) and relevant optical coherence tomography parameters. This study conducted at the Gitam Institute of Medical Sciences and Research involved nine patients with blurred central vision. A thorough eye examination was conducted. The diagnosis of CSCR was made, and high-quality retinal scans were obtained using SD-OCT, focusing on foveal thickness, subretinal fluid (SRF) height and diameter, subfoveal choroidal thickness (SFCT), and PEDs height and diameter. This study involved nine participants with CSCR, predominantly male (77.78%), with a mean age of 42 years. Foveal thickness varied (274–740 μ, average 454.1111). Macular SRF height ranged from 34–572 μ, average 266.6667, SRF diameter 866–6100 μ, average 3,394.1111, and SFCT 401–479 μ, average 447.4444. Among CSCR patients with PEDs (66.67%), no significant difference was observed in ocular parameters compared to those with CSCR only. PED characteristics exhibited variability (height: 20–223, diameter: 89–1474). Our study highlights the utility of SD-OCT in evaluating various parameters associated with CSCR, particularly PED. The research explored various parameters, including foveal thickness, macular maximum SRF height and diameter, SFCT, and PEDs height and diameter, shedding light on the heterogeneity of CSCR presentations.
