Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Changes of retinal capillaries after hd-PDT

    The primary outcome measure is the OCTA-based changes in the retinal capillaries after hd-PDT

    1 month, 3 month

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • The proportion of eyes with complete absorption of subretinal fluid(SRF)

    1 month, 3 month

  • Change of Best Corrected Visual Acuity(BCVA)

    1 month, 3 month

  • Changes of choroidal thickness after hd-PDT

    1 month, 3 month

Study Arms (1)

CSC patients

Half-dose photodynamic therapy was performed when a serous retinal detachment involving the macular fovea was present; The treatment field size was set as 3000 microns. This was achieved by administering 3mg/m² of Verteporfin intravenously over a period of 10 minutes. Fifteen minutes after commencing the verteporfin infusion the GLD was exposed to a 689 nm laser light with a florescence of 600 mw/cm² for 83 seconds and a total energy of 50 J/cm². OCTA (XR Optovue, Fremont, CA, USA) and spectral domain OCT (SD-OCT) were performed at baseline and each follow-up (one month and three months) visit after hd-PDT.

Procedure: Half-dose photodynamic therapy

Interventions

Half-dose photodynamic therapy was achieved by administering 3mg/m² of Verteporfin (Visudyne; Novartis, Switzerland) intravenously over a period of 10 minutes. Fifteen minutes after commencing the verteporfin infusion the greatest linear dimension was exposed to a 689 nm laser light with a florescence of 600 mw/cm² for 83 seconds and a total energy of 50 J/cm². Optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) with the split-spectrum amplitude-decorrelation angiography algorithm (XR Optovue, Fremont, CA, USA) and spectral domain OCT (SD-OCT) were performed at baseline and each follow-up (one month and three months) visit after hd-PDT.

Study Population

Patients with Central Serous Chorioretinopathy (CSC)

You may qualify if:

  • CSC diagnosed by FFA and ICGA, where the active leakage was just located in macular fovea with SRF confirmed by OCT
  • Patient age ≥18 years
  • BCVA ≥35 letters on ETDRS charts
  • Persistent CSC for a period of time or patients were anxiety about the symptom and asking for treatment
  • Lack of either spontaneous improvement or improvement induced by empirical treatment such as pharmaceutical drug
  • The provision of written informed consent -

You may not qualify if:

  • The presence of any other chorioretinal diseases that may affect the studies, such as age-related macular degeneration (AMD), polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy (PCV)
  • Patients who had received any previous treatment, including PDT, intraocular drug injection or focal thermal laser photocoagulation for CSC
  • Patients with PED in macular fovea which the average diameter (transverse diameter and vertical diameter) was more than 300 microns
  • Patients with high myopia, defined as a refractive error (spherical equivalent) \< -6.00 diopters, or an axial length \>26.5 mm
  • Patients with media opacities, or signal strength index of the images \< 60
  • Patients under corticosteroid therapy -
