Assessment of choroidal topographic changes by swept source optical coherence tomography after photodynamic therapy for central serous chorioretinopathy – Accepted Manuscript
Abstract: Purpose: To investigate the relationship between choroidal thickness and angiographic abnormalities in central serous chorioretinopathy (CSC) eyes by swept-source optical coherence tomography (Swept-OCT), before and after half-fluence photodynamic therapy (PDT).Design: Prospective interventional case series.Methods: Consecutive patients presenting with treatment-naïve active CSC underwent a complete ophthalmologic examination, including Swept-OCT at study entry, and 7 days and 30 days after treatment with half-fluence PDT. Main outcome measures were changes in choroidal maps after PDT (mean±SD) and the relationship between choroidal thickness and angiographic abnormalities.Results: Twelve eyes of 12 patients (2 females, 10 males; mean age 55.6±14.0 years) were included.
