Abstract

The aim of this study is to present our knowledge about pachychoroid diseases using case reports, literature review and our own clinical experiences. A summary flow chart of treatment options for the subgroups was prepared, too. Pachychoroid diseases include the following: central serous chorioretinopathy (CSCR), pachychoroid pigment epitheliopathy (PPE), pachychoroid neovasculopathy (PNV), polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy (PCV), peripapillary pachychoroid syndrome (PPS), focal choroidal excavation (FCE). A common feature of pachychoroid diseases is the quantitative or qualitative abnormality of the choroidea, which is often associated with subretinal fluid accumulation. The disease group does not currently have a standard treatment protocol; some of the multiple treatments prove to be more effective, however, there are significant differences between the subgroups. We summarize which subgroup benefits from eplerenone tablet therapy, micropulse laser therapy, verteporfin photodynamic therapy or intravitreal anti-VEGF injection therapy.
