Selective Retina Therapy with Real-Time Feedback-Controlled Dosimetry for Treating Acute Idiopathic Central Serous Chorioretinopathy in Korean Patients

摘要

Purpose. To evaluate short-term treatment outcomes following selective retina therapy (SRT) with real-time feedback-controlled dosimetry in Korean patients with acute idiopathic central serous chorioretinopathy (CSC). Methods. Sixteen eyes (16 patients) with acute idiopathic CSC (symptom duration??3 months) were included in this retrospective study. All patients underwent a single session of SRT with real-time feedback-controlled dosimetry. Best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) and central foveal thickness (CFT) before and 3 months after treatment were examined and compared. Results. The logarithm of minimal angle of resolution BCVA was significantly better 3 months after treatment (0.16?±?0.18) than at the time of diagnosis (0.27?±?0.18, ). Additionally, subretinal fluid had resolved in all 16 eyes 3 months after treatment and CFT was significantly lower 3 months after treatment (215.6?±?17.9?μm) than at baseline (441.4?±?124.8?μm, ). No notable SRT-related complications were observed during the study period. Conclusion. The results of the present study suggest that SRT is a useful therapeutic option for patients with acute idiopathic CSC. Further studies are required to better understand the long-term efficacy of this treatment. This trial is registered with clinical trial registration number NCT03339856.
