Abstract:
Objective To investigate the choroidal thickness (CT) in patient (＞ 50 years old) with central serous chorioretinopathy (CSC) compared to age-matched healthy controls.Methods Together 25 (＞ 50 years old) patients with CSC from January 2016 to January 2017 were enrolled in these study.Of 25 patients,20 patients were affected unilaterally and 5 patients were affected bilaterally.These patients were divided into affected eye group (30 eyes) and unaffected fellow eye group (19 eyes).Addition 26 age-matched healthy subjects were recruited as control group (26 eyes).Enhanced depth imaging technique of optical coherence tomography (EDI-OCT) was used to measure the choriodial thickness at 5 sites,including subfovea and 500 μm,1500 μm temporal and nasal to the fovea.Results The mean age of patients with CSC was (60.08 ± 7.68) years.The subfoveal choroid thickness of both affected eye group and unaffected fellow eye group was significantly thicker than that of the control group [(414.17 ±85.88)pan vs.(352.89 ±97.22) μn vs.(280.69 ±90.99) pau] (both P ＜0.05).In the patients with monocular affected eyes,the subfoveal choroid thickness of the affected eyes was thicker than that of the fellow eyes [(414.07 ± 85.88) μm vs.(352.89 ± 97.22) μm] (P ＜ 0.05).There were significant differences in choriodal thickness at other sites in the three groups (all P ＜ O.05).Conclusion The choriodal thickness in patients with CSC at over 50 years of age is significantly thicker than that in the agematched healthy subjects,with subfoveal choroid thickness ＞ 400 μm,which is helpful for the differential diagnosis of elderly patients with macular serous retinal detachment.
