Multifocal serous choroidopathy.
Six percent of young and middle-age adults with idiopathic central serous choroidopathy were found to have bilateral multifocal areas of pigment epithelial detachments and transmissional defects during fluorescein angiography. The usual features of this chronic and recurring disease warrant its classification as a specific syndrome. The maculopathy is generally unresponsive to steroid therapy and may require photocoagulation to effect a cure.
