When to Treat and Not to Treat Patients With Central Serous Retinopathy
Central serous retinopathy (CSR) is a pathologic condition characterized by swelling and elevation of retinal tissue near the macula due to accumulation of fluid between the photoreceptor outer segments and the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE), often leading to detachment of the neurosensory retina.1 Also sometimes called central serous chorioretinopathy, the condition most often affects men 20 to 60 years of age, but it can also affect women.2
The disease is often unilateral and is self-limiting in about 60% of cases, but sometimes the retinal detachment persists, leading to damage to the RPE and the photoreceptors and resulting in vision loss.3 As with any disease that resolves spontaneously in most cases, the clinician confronted by a patient with CSR is faced with decisions regarding whether, when and how to treat. This article summarizes my own preferences and rationale regarding how to manage patients presenting with CSR.

How Central Serous Retinopathy Is Treated
Central serous retinopathy, also called central serous chorioretinopathy, does not always require treatment. It often will go away on its own after a couple of months. Sometimes, an eye doctor may decide to treat central serous retinopathy if it is severe or recurring.
This article reviews some of the most common treatment approaches for central serous retinopathy, including monitoring, medications, and laser treatment.
Home Remedies and Lifestyle
Most cases of central serous retinopathy do not require treatment as the fluid build-up under the retina (the light-sensitive tissue in the back of the eye) often goes away on its own after a couple of months.
If your eye doctor wants to monitor your central serous retinopathy without treating it, make sure to return for any follow-up appointments. Those appointments can help see if the fluid build-up is going away or staying the same.
Over-the-Counter Therapies
There are no over-the-counter therapies for central serous retinopathy. Eye doctors will use laser or laser-assisted treatments, medications, and monitoring. The majority of people with central serous retinopathy ac
