TI  - Significant Visual Impairment after Short-Lasting Central Serous 
      Chorioretinopathy.

AB  - A 37-year-old man experienced two episodes of central serous chorioretinopathy 
      (CSCR) with the onset within a 7-month period, one in each eye. The diagnosis was 
      made based on spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT), fundus 
      autofluorescence (FAF), and fluorescein angiography. The presence of subretinal 
      neovascularization and polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy were excluded. Each CSCR 
      episode lasted for approximately 6 months and resolved completely after laser 
      photocoagulation (left eye) and photodynamic therapy (right eye). In the right 
      eye, subthreshold micropulse laser treatment and oral eplerenone were initially 
      administered because of a verteporfin shortage, but they were not effective. 
      Final best-corrected visual acuity was 0.8 logMAR in the left eye and "counting 
      fingers" in the right. SD-OCT revealed significant retinal thinning in both eyes 
      despite FAF, showing no major loss of retinal pigment epithelial cells. A 
      significant reduction of ganglion cell complex thickness occurred in the right 
      eye. Acute CSCR can result in significant visual impairment, even when 
      short-lasting.
