Chronic central serous chorioretinopathy (CCSC) with recurrent and prolonged exudative retinal detachment may cause multiple degenerative manifestations with poor visual acuity. By acting on choroidal hyperpermeability, photodynamic therapy seems to be a useful treatment for symptomatic CCSC. We present the case of a 60-year-old patient presenting with symptomatic CCSC complicated with serous retinal detachment lasting more than 1 year.

Purpose: To analyze the angiographic and tomographic results and the visual acuity of a group of patients presenting acute or chronic serous central chorioretinopathy (CSCR) treated with dynamic phototherapy. This treatment was guided by ICG angiography data.
Patients And Method: We conducted a retrospective/prospective nonrandomized study on 31 eyes of 27 patients, including eight acute forms and 23 chronic forms.
The unilateral idiopathic leopard-spot lesion of the retinal pigment epithelium is a rare and acquired entity of the young adult whose clinical description is quite recent. This pathology presents a strong proliferative potential that is both neovascular and fibroglial. The authors report a case with severe fibroglial complications.

Since then, this technique has evolved somewhat thanks to Coleman, who developed lipostructure.

Introduction: Although the number of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) cases continues to grow throughout the world, orbital NHL is still a rare tumor that is difficult to diagnose. The objective of our study was to analyze the different orbital NHLs diagnosed in our Ophthalmology Department during the last 20 years.
Material And Methods: [corrected] We conducted a retrospective study of conjunctive-orbital lymphomas diagnosed in the Amiens Ophthalmology Department between 1982 and 2002.
