The authors are commenting on the study entitled “Optical coherence tomography findings in chronic central serous chorioretinopathy after photodynamic therapy” published in Ophthalmic Surg Lasers Imaging Retina 2019;50(1):25-32. The study concluded that optical coherence tomography angiography may provide new insights into the pathogenesis of chronic central serous chorioretinopathy, namely in identifying a correlation between structures of the deep choroid and changes in the retinal pigment epithelium and neurosensory retina. However, the validation, extrapolation, and generalizability of these findings to real-world clinical practice can be made only after analysis of all the missing baseline potential predictive factors mentioned by us in addition to the baseline characteristics already assessed in this study, serving to identify the key drivers correlated with pathogenesis of the chronic central serous chorioretinopathy.
