PURPOSE: To describe the anatomical and functional outcome of verteporfin ocular photodynamic therapy (PDT) in serous retinal detachment caused by the diffuse retinal pigment epitheliopathy form of chronic idiopathic central serous chorioretinopathy.
DESIGN: Interventional case report.
METHOD: A 48-year-old Caucasian man with unilateral exudative retinal detachment from diffuse retinal pigment epitheliopathy and visual acuity of 20/40 was managed with verteporfin PDT applied sequentially in three separate spots targeting all retinal pigment epithelium leaks identified with intravenous fluorescein angiography (IVFA). Outcome measures included visual acuity, biomicroscopic appearance, and leakage on IVFA.Clinical practice. Subretinal fluid resolved within 2 weeks; visual acuity returned to 20/20 with no recurrence at 6 months of follow-up. There was no leakage on IVFA posttreatment and no obvious toxicity. To our knowledge, this is the first report of PDT causing resolution of macular detachment in diffuse retinal pigment epitheliopathy. Its long-term results with regard to the prognosis of the disease and the recurrence rate remain to be evaluated.
