Selective retina therapy with real-time feedback-controlled technology in central serous chorioretinopathy: a 24-month follow-up real-world prospective study by Hyeong Gon Yu, Chang Ki Yoon

“…Objective Although central serous chorioretinopathy (CSC) treatment using selective retinal therapy (SRT) has presented favourable outcomes, no long-term studies with a real-world clinical practice regimen have been conducted.Methods and analysis We performed a long-term assessment of CSC treatment using SRT with real-time feedback (RTF) technology. 50 patients (53 eyes) with CSC and more than a 1-month symptom duration were recruited and treated with SRT using a 1.7 µs pulse width, 527 nm neodymium-doped yttrium lithium fluoride (Nd:YLF) laser equipped with an RTF system.Results After 6 months of treatment, complete subretinal fluid resolution was achieved in 62% of the eyes. …”
