| description | Plain Language Summary Central serous chorioretinopathy (CSCR) is nowadays classified as a clinical entity belonging to the spectrum of pachychoroid disorders characterized by increased choroidal thickness. Quite often, a shorter axial length and hypermetropia were thought to cause choroidal congestion, and as such, were believed to be associated with the incidence of CSCR. This study aimed to evaluate this relationship in the context of the disease duration. The analysis included comparisons among affected CSCR eyes, healthy fellow eyes, and a control group. The results did not prove a relationship between a shorter eyeball or any specific refraction error and CSCR. Both acute and chronic cases of CSCR presented with significantly greater values of choroidal thickness compared with healthy individuals. A loss of retinal thickness and volume was observed with a longer disease duration. |
