Abstract

UNLABELLED: We describe the case of a 54-year-old white man who experienced bilateral central serous chorioretinopathy following laser in situ keratomileusis for myopia. Postoperatively, the uncorrected visual acuity was 20/20 in both eyes. One month later, the patient reported a decrease of vision in both eyes. Dilated fundus examination, fluorescein and indocyanine green angiography, and optical coherence tomography showed bilateral central serous chorioretinopathy. Photodynamic therapy was performed twice, and visual acuity improved. FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE: No author has a financial or proprietary interest in any material or method mentioned.
