Aim: To adopt a novel artificial intelligence (AI) optical coherence tomography (OCT)-based program to identify the presence of biomarkers associated with central serous chorioretinopathy (CSC) and whether these can differentiate between acute and chronic central serous chorioretinopathy (aCSC and cCSC).
Methods: Multicenter, observational study with a retrospective design enrolling treatment-naïve patients with aCSC and cCSC. The diagnosis of aCSC and cCSC was established with multimodal imaging and for the current study subsequent follow-up visits were also considered.
Central serous chorioretinopathy (CSC) is a relatively common disease that causes vision loss due to macular subretinal fluid leakage and it is often associated with reduced vision-related quality of life. In CSC, the leakage of subretinal fluid through defects in the retinal pigment epithelial layer's outer blood-retina barrier appears to occur secondary to choroidal abnormalities and dysfunction. The treatment of CSC is currently the subject of controversy, although recent data obtained from several large randomized controlled trials provide a wealth of new information that can be used to establish a treatment algorithm.

Methods: Multicenter, observational study with a retrospective design. Treatment-naïve patients with acute CSC and chronic CSC were enrolled.
Purpose: To compare intra- and postoperative results of sutureless scleral fixated Carlevale intraocular lens (IOL) with iris fixated Artisan IOL.
Methods: Monocentre, retrospective analysis of refractive outcomes and intra- and postoperative complications of patients who received a Carlevale or Artisan IOL between January 2019 and March 2022.
Results: 178 eyes of 169 patients were included (101 Carlevale and 77 Artisan IOLs).
Purpose: We performed a multicenter, retrospective study on patients with bilateral chronic central serous chorioretinopathy (cCSC) who received single-session bilateral reduced-settings photodynamic therapy (ssbPDT) and assessed anatomical (resolution of subretinal fluid [SRF]) and functional (best-corrected visual acuity [BCVA]) outcomes and safety.
Methods: Patients who underwent ssbPDT between 01/01/2011 and 30/09/2022 were included. The resolution of SRF at first, second, and final follow-up was assessed on optical coherence tomography (OCT), and BCVA measurements were collected at these visits.
