Central serous chorioretinopathy and angioid streaks: coincidental?

Background: To report an unusual case of central serous chorioretinopathy in a patient with angioid streaks.

Case Presentation: The authors describe a case report of a 26-year old male patient presenting acute scotoma and metamorphopsia in OD. He had been diagnosed with angioid streaks complicated with choroidal neovascularization and referred to us for treatment.

Evaluation of visual acuity, macular status, and subfoveal choroidal thickness changes after cataract surgery in eyes with diabetic retinopathy.

Purpose: Progression of diabetic macular edema has been reported as a common cause of poor visual acuity recovery after cataract surgery in patients with diabetes. Despite being responsible for the blood supply to the outer retina, the role of the choroidal layer in the pathogenesis of diabetic retinopathy (DR) is not yet understood. Our objective is to characterize macular and subfoveal choroidal thickness changes after cataract surgery in eyes with DR.
