[Diode-laser photocoagulation in central serous chorioretinopathy].
OBJECTIVE
This case report reveals the effect of the diode laser photocoagulation in Central Serous Chorioretinopathy.


METHODS
A 49 years old male has been referred to us for a decrease in the central vision (2/10) for 4 months. The clinical examination of the retina and the angiophluorography have diagnosed a classical form of Central Serous Chorioretinopathy, with a unique leaking point, situated away from the fovea. The focal diode laser photocoagulation of the leaking point has been performed and 6 weeks after treatment, the visual acuity has normalized (10/10) and the angiophluorography has proven no sign of activity.


CONCLUSIONS
The etiopathogenetic, clinical and evolutive aspects of this case are discussed in comparison to the data in the literature.


CONCLUSIONS
The focal diode laser photocoagulation of the leaking point has led to immediate anatomical and functional success in Central Serous Chorioretinopathy.
