Abstract

Central serous chorioretinopathy is a relatively good prognosis. But certain patients present poor visual outcome. To clarify the courses and factors that affect final visual outcome, 36 patients who did not receive any treatment were studied respectively. The smoke stack type of leakage was more frequently noted in fresh cases. The courses of the disease were similar in spite of difference of type of leakage. The type of leakage did not affect both the initial and final visual acuity. And among the cases with poor visual outcome, there were noted other lesions such as pigment epithelial decompensation, choroidal atrophy and subretinal neovascular membrane.
