The understanding of pachychoroid phenotype is incomplete. It is important to understand the risk of conversion from an uncomplicated pachychoroid phenotype to the pachychoroid disease phenotype, to guide appropriate management of these patients.
The progression of uncomplicated pachychoroid phenotype to pachychoroid disease is not well established and the pathophysiology of these phenotypes remains unknown: specifically if the occurence of pachyvessels is the primary event, or develops secondary to the inner choroidal attenuation.
A longitudinal study of the pachychoroid phenotype will provide much needed information regarding the natural history of the pachychoroid phenotype. Secondly, a detailed chronicle of the choroidal alterations in the pachychoroid disease spectrum may yield insights into the pathogenesis, and facilitate the development of disease modulation strategies.
