The purpose of this study is to determine whether micropulse laser (MPL) is different to half-dose photodynamic therapy on acute central serous chorioretinopathy.
Central serous chorioretinopathy(CSC) is characterized by serous detachment of neurosensory retina which can cause lose in visual acuity.Some studies have shown that Half-dose photodynamic therapy(PDT) is effective on CSC,although accompanied with side-effects,such as choroidal ischemia, retinal pigmental epithelium(RPE) atrophy,and RPE rip,and with exorbitant price.Recent retrospective studies suggest micropulse laser (MPL) therapy may also be effective without obvious complications in this disease. But to date, there is no study on effectiveness of CSC between PDT and MPL.
The study is the first prospective randomized controlled trial about 577nm micropulse laser versus half-dose photodynamic therapy on acute central serous chorioretinopathy.The null hypothesis of the study is that there is difference between MPL and half-dose photodynamic therapy on acute central serous chorioretinopathy at first month after treatment.The primary outcome measures is the proportion of eyes with complete absorption of subretinal fluid at 1 month after treatment.

| Label | Type | Description | Intervention Names |
|---|---|---|---|
| 577-MPL | Experimental | 577nm micropulse laser(577-MPL) will be performed of the areas identified on hyperfluorescent "hot spots" on the mid-phase (3 minutes) fluorescein.Multiple laser spots will be applied, covering the leakage area. |
|
| HD-PDT | Active Comparator | Half-dose photodynamic therapy (HD-PDT) is administered to the patients. At 15 minutes after the start of the infusion, PDT laser treatment is performed with standard 50 J/cm2 fluency, a wavelength of 689nm, and a treatment duration of 83 seconds. |

| Name | Type | Description | Arm Group Labels | Other Names |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 577-MPL | Device | All treatments were provided by a single practitioner with the 577-nm yellow laser system(Supra 577nm LaserSystem) in 577-MPL arm. The individual power for the patient was titrated at a normal area of near the affected area in micropulse model.The power titration was started at 700 milliwatt(mW) and then gradually increased until a just visible burn was seen. When this threshold was reached, the power was reduced by 50%, using a 100-μm spot diameter and a 200-ms duration with 5 % duty cycle. |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| the proportion of eyes with complete absorption of subretinal fluid(SRF) | The primary outcome measure is the OCT-based improvement rate (defined as the proportion of eyes with complete absorption of subretinal fluid on OCT images | 1 month |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Change of Best Corrected Visual Acuity(BCVA) | 1 month, 3 month, 6 month | |
| Change of fundus autofluorescence | Fundus autofluorescence will be evaluated for different patterns(normal, increased, and decreased)before and after treatment |
