Central Serous ChorioRetinopathy
Central serous chorioretinopathy is a condition in which
exudate (fluid containing blood and tissue components that escapes from blood vessels due to inflammation or other causes) seeps from the choroid beneath the retina and collects in the
central area where images are focused (the macula), causing visual impairment.
