Abstrakt: Purpose: To investigate the prevalence of ciliochoroidal effusion (CE) in central serous chorioretinopathy (CSC) using anterior-segment optical coherence tomography and its association with the clinical features of CSC.
Methods: Overall, 164 eyes of 164 patients with CSC and 51 eyes of 51 age- and sex-matched normal control participants were retrospectively examined. Anterior-segment optical coherence tomography was used to assess patients with CSC and control subjects for CE and scleral thickness. Central serous chorioretinopathy eyes were divided into two groups: eyes with CE (CE group) and eyes without CE (non-CE group). Scleral thickness was measured at the point that was 6 mm posterior to the scleral spur in four directions.
Results: Among the 164 eyes with CSC, 32 eyes (19.5%) displayed CE, and this proportion was significantly higher than that in control subjects (2.0%) (P = 0.001). Scleral thickness was significantly greater in the CE group compared with the non-CE group at all four directions (P < 0.05 for all). Multivariable analysis revealed that the mean scleral thickness (odds ratio: 1.01; 95% confidence interval: 1.00-1.02; P = 0.007) was significantly associated with the incidence of CE.
Conclusion: Central serous chorioretinopathy may accompany fluid accumulation in the anterior segment more frequently than previously expected in association with thick sclera.
