Argon laser photocoagulation in the treatment of central serous retinopathy

Clinical Trial

Argon laser photocoagulation in the treatment of central serous retinopathy

P Leaver et al. Br J Ophthalmol. 1979 Oct.

Abstract

In a prospective randomised trial of argon laser photocoagulation in the management of central serous retinopathy it was confirmed that this treatment hastens resolution of the serous detachment. No evidence was found to suggest that treatment influences the final visual outcome in eyes with initial visual acuity of 6/12 or better.
