Abstract
Idiopathic central serous chorioretinopathy is a very commonly seen disease process involving atypical RPE cells allowing the development of a neuroepithelial retinal detachment. Typically, this disease is self-contained and resolves spontaneously; however, on occasion, one must intervene by treating the area of atypical RPE with laser photocoagulation. Patients with ICSC should be monitored closely for any signs of choroidal neovascular membrane.
