Bacillary Layer Detachment in an Atypical Case of Central Serous Chorioretinopathy Associated with High Hyperopia

Abstract

A 16-year-old boy with elevated hyperopia presented to the office with a 24-h history of bilateral blurred vision, mainly of the left eye, and bilateral central serous chorioretinopathy. He showed a clinically recognizable bacillary layer detachment in one eye and excellent multimodal diagnostic image correlation, with the best-corrected visual acuity as 20/400. He had bilateral serous retinal detachment, as confirmed by optical coherence tomography. Laser photocoagulation was performed with good results, and reestablishment of the foveal anatomical structure was documented 16 days after treatment.
