Central serous retinopathy in a 7-year-old girl

S L Fine et al. Am J Ophthalmol. 1980 Dec.

Abstract

A 7-year-old girl experienced sudden loss of central visual acuity in one eye. Ophthalmoscopy disclosed a serous detachment of the sensory retina, and fluorescein angiography showed many areas of focal dye leakage through the pigment epithelium. Visual acuity returned to 6/7.5 (20/25), and the subretinal fluid was reabsorbed completely over the next two months. To our knowledge, this is the youngest patient with central serous retinopathy ever described.
