Abstract: Objective To investigate the characteristics of fundus autofluorescence (AF) in the leakage site of central serous chorioretinopathy (CSC). Methods Sixty-seven CSC patients (67 eyes)underwent fundus fluorescein angiography (FFA) examination with a confocal scanning angiography (HRA2). Autofluorescence was elicited by the wavelength of 488 nm. The patterns of autofluorescence corresponding to the leakage site on FFA were observed. All the enrolled patients were grouped by age (age≤45 in 47 eyes and age >45 in 20 eyes) and courses (acute CSC in 25 eyes and chronic or recurrent CSC in 42 eyes). the patterns of autofluorescence were analyzed respectively. Results There are 4 patterns of AF in the leakage site on FFA of CSC patients: no AF changes, punctuate hypo-AF, expanded hypo-AF or speckled AF, hyper-AF. The percentages of those patterns in all 67 eyes are 52. 2%, 23. 9% , 14. 9% and 9.0% respectively. The percentages of those patterns in the group of age ≤45 (n=47) are 55.3%,23. 4% , 14. 9% and 6. 3% respectively. The percentages of those patterns in the group of age >45 (n=20)are 45. 0% , 25. 0% , 15. 0% and 15. 0% respectively. The percentages of those patterns in acute CSC (n=20) are 80.0%, 16.0%, 4.0% and 0% respectively. The percentages of those patterns in chronic or recurrent CSC (n=42) are 35.7%, 28.6%, 21.4% and 14.3% respectively. Conclusion There are different patterns of fundus autofluorescence in different age and courses of CSC patients.
