title: Optos Optomap Panoramic 200MA imaging of a serous choroidal detachment responsive to furosemide.
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To describe a case of a serous choroidal detachment which resulted after discontinuation of furosemide and illustrate the utility of ultrawide-angle fundus imaging in documenting this lesion in the retinal periphery.
  
  
  METHODS
  Observational case report.
  
  
  METHODS
  An 85 year old female presented with symptoms of a "brown curtain" descending over the left eye which was temporally related to recent discontinuation of oral furosemide. Ultrawide-field photography allowed for accurate documentaton of the choroidal detachments.
  
  
  RESULTS
  After resuming furosemide, the serous choroidal detachments resolved.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  We hypothesize a shift of free water following discontinuation of furosemide as a novel etiology for the development of serous chordoidal detachments. Ultrawide-field fundus photography was useful to document this lesion.
