    Abstract:

    Central serous chorioretinopathy(CSC)is an important cause for central vision loss. It mostly occurs in young and middle-aged men. It is a condition characterized by a serous detachment of neurosensory retina at the posterior pole and leakage from the retinal pigment epithelium(RPE). Most patients with acute CSC will resolve spontaneously. However, in cases of chronic CSC with persistent serous retinal detachment, patients might develop progressive vision loss. This article was made a brief review of the current treatment methods, including laser, photodynamic therapy(PDT), intravitreal anti-vascular endothelial growth factor therapy and the mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists.
