Abstract
The analysis of 212 fluorescein angiograms of the same number of eyes showe d that Type I is by far the mostpreualent form of central serous retinopath y. Type I appeared in 92.45%, Type II in 6.60% and the Intermediate type in 0.95% of the examined eyes. The patients were mostly male (81.13%) between 30 and 49 years of age (95.28%). The number of leakage sites in Type I cen tral serous retinopathy varied from 1 (83.67%) to 5 (1.02%). Solitary leaka ge appeared in 83.67%, while uniform spreading of fluorescein into the subr etinal blister in Type I central serous retinopathy appeared in 85.71% of e yes. Most leakage sites (32.50%) were located in the upper nasal quadrant, while the lower temporal quadrant was least affected (15.83%). The foveal a vascular zone was affected in 4.14% and the papillomacular bundle in 20.83% of the examined eyes.
