Central serous chorioretinopathy (CSC) is a relatively frequent eye disease in younger patients. It is characterized by serous detachment of the neurosensory retina with or without serous detachment of the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE), which can cause vision drop, image distortion, loss of color and contrast vision. Although nonfoveal focal leakage can be treated with traditional laser photocoagulation, but it has the side effects of causing RPE atrophy, scotoma, or secondary CNV. Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is another effective treatment but it's more than most families can afford to pay because of the high cost, what's more, it is accompanied with side-effects, such as choroidal ischemia, retinal pigmental epithelium (RPE) atrophy and RPE rip.
To date there is no international consensus on the optimal treatment of CSC Many retrospective studies suggest that micropulse laser (MPL) therapy may also be effective without obvious complications in this disease.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of micropulse laser (MPL) on acute central serous chorioretinopathy compared with the traditional laser coagulation.
The study is a prospective randomized controlled trial about 577nm micropulse laser versus traditional laser coagulation therapy on acute central serous chorioretinopathy. The primary outcome measures is the proportion of eyes with complete absorption of subretinal fluid 3 months after treatment.

| 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. |
