title: Acute lupus choroidopathy: multimodal imaging and differential diagnosis from central serous chorioretinopathy.
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a thoroughly examined multi-organ disease whose common ocular complications are also well documented. However, SLE choroidopathy, being a rare ocular complication, is needed to be better understood, in order to make the differential diagnosis from clinical conditions such as central serous chorioretinopathy and provide adequate prompt treatment.
  
  
  OBJECTIVE
  To provide a clear understanding for the clinical course of SLE choroidopathy by the help of enhanced depth imaging optical coherence tomography, fluorescein angiography, and indocyanine angiography.
  
  
  METHODS
  The study is designed as a case presentation, consisting of the physical examination results and the data gathered by the relevant screening methods for each visit, applied by the same ophthalmologists and technicians.
  
  
  METHODS
  The visits were organized as same day examinations as needed, in a university hospital which works as a referral center.
