The authors regret a typographical error in the P values of differences between the best corrected visual acuity of eyes with type 1 and type 2 inner choroidal fibrosis, at the first and final visit.
The correct abstract reads as follows:
Purpose: To study imaging characteristics of inner choroidal fibrosis (ICF) in eyes with chronic central serous chorioretinopathy (CSC) and report long term changes.
Design: Retrospective interventional case series.
Methods: Records of chronic CSC patients between January 2004 and September 2024 were reviewed to identify and study longitudinal changes in eyes with ICF. ICF was divided into morphological types: type 1 and type 2. Type 1 ICF represented disorganized inner choroid without well-defined accumulations, while type 2 ICF represented accumulations with a demarcation line.
Results: Thirty-eight eyes of 23 patients were identified. All the eyes had complex CSC, with a mean of 1.7 lesions per eye. Patients were followed up for a median period of 36.5 months. The mean BCVA reduced from 0.68 ± 0.46 logMAR (20/96) to 0.78 ± 0.44 logMAR (20/121). Mean BCVA at time of presentation (0.84 logMAR, 20/138 vs 0.52 logMAR, 20/66; P =.01), as well as at last visit (0.89 logMAR, 20/155 vs 0.67 logMAR, 20/94; P =.07) was worse in eyes with Type 2 as compared to Type 1 ICF. Resolution of CSC was seen in 5 eyes (12.8%) at the last visit. There was a non-significant decrease in SFCT (456 vs 444 microns, P =.8) and significant increase in hypo-fluorescence area on indocyanine green angiography of 4.25 sq. mm ( P <.00001). Higher duration of follow-up and persistent fluid were associated with increase of size in ICF on multivariate regression analysis.
Conclusion: ICF in complex CSC was associated with persistent fluid and poor response to therapy. It was seen to increase in size with increasing chronicity.
