We examined 19 patients (41 +/- 7.5 years old) with central serous chorioretinopathy and symptoms that ranged from one day to 24 months. Fluorescein and indocyanine green angiographies were performed with a scanning laser ophthalmoscope. Focal exudation was found in all patients with fluorescein and in 15 patients (79%) with indocyanine green. We found a more widespread exudation of indocyanine green into the choroid around the focal hyperfluorescent spot in seven patients (37%). Perfusion with fluorescein was delayed in the area of focal exudation in two patients (11%) and with indocyanine green in 12 patients (63%). Exudation of both dyes stopped with clinical improvement, whereas the perfusion deficits remained unchanged. These results further indicate that central serous chorioretinopathy is primarily a choroidal disease.
