A 30-Year-Old Man with a Recent History of COVID-19 Requiring Treatment with Corticosteroids Who Developed Bilateral Central Serous Chorioretinopathy During 7-Month Follow-Up.

BACKGROUND Central serous chorioretinopathy (CSCR) involves a localized serous macular detachment, secondary to retinal pigment epithelial and choroidal vascular changes, which can be an adverse effect of corticosteroid use. Most CSCR cases resolve spontaneously, and normal vision returns, while some chronic cases can result in blindness. This report is of a 30-year-old man with a recent history of Corona virus disease (COVID)-19 requiring corticosteroid treatment who developed bilateral CSCR with unilateral fibrin and a 7-month follow-up.

Effects of Continuous Positive Airway Pressure Treatment for Obstructive Sleep Apnea-Hypopnea Syndrome on Corneal Morphological Characteristics.

Purpose: To evaluate the effects of continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) therapy on corneal endothelial morphometry and pachymetry in patients with obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS).

Methods: This prospective, observational study included patients with OSAHS who were evaluated right before and after the commencement of CPAP treatment. Each patient underwent a detailed ophthalmologic examination and assessment of their corneal endothelium with a noncontact specular microscope (Tomey EM-3000; Tomey Corp).
