  Objective: To compare the Choroidal Thickness (CT) in eyes with acute Central Serous Chorioretinopathy (CSC) and asymptomatic fellow eyes. Materials and methods: A prospective, observational cross-sectional and comparative clinical study was conducted in Omani patients with acute CSC. Sub-Foveal Choroidal Thickness (SFCT) was measured manually using Enhanced Depth Imaging spectral-domain Optical Coherence Tomography (EDI-OCT) both in the affected and asymptomatic fellow eyes at presentation, 6-8 weeks and 3 months. Results: Thirty-two eyes of sixteen patients were enrolled (16 eyes with acute CSC and 16 asymptomatic fellow eyes). The majority were males (81.3%). All patients were in their third decade of life, with a mean age of 35.75 (± 2.27 SD) years (range 30-38). The mean SFCT in eyes with acute CSC at the f.. View More»
