Central Serous Chorioretinopathy

Central serous chorioretinopathy (CSCR), also known as ​​central serous retinopathy, is a condition that causes fluid to build up underneath the macula, the center of the retina. Fluid leaks from a layer of blood vessels that run beneath the retina called the choroid.

CSCR is often a chronic disease. It may recur in 20 to 30 percent of patients, and some degree of permanent visual loss is more likely in recurrent or prolonged cases.
