Spectral domain optical coherence tomography-guided laser treatment of central serous chorioretinopathy in a pregnant woman.

AbstractPURPOSE:
To report a case of central serous chorioretinopathy treated with focal laser photocoagulation guided by spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) without fluorescein angiography.
METHODS:
In this interventional case report, a 27-year-old pregnant lady with central serous chorioretinopathy was evaluated with fundus photography and SD-OCT. She was treated with focal laser photocoagulation to the area of micro rip on the summit of pigment epithelial detachment identified by SD-OCT.
RESULTS:
Successful treatment of serous macular detachment using SD-OCT in a pregnant lady.
CONCLUSION:
We report a case of central serous chorioretinopathy evaluated and treated successfully with SD-OCT without the use of fluorescein angiography.
