Photodynamic therapy–induced acute exudative maculopathy was frequent in chronic central serous chorioretinopathy. However, a self-resolving evolution and favorable prognosis were observed in most cases. There was no association between photodynamic therapy–induced acute exudative maculopathy and age, sex, or choroidal neovascularization but was associated with worse baseline visual acuity and choriocapillaris vessel occlusion.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
