We investigated the temporal change in best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA), the anatomic outcomes of PED, including recurrence, central choroidal thickness (CCT), and also choroidal thickness as a possible factor associated with treatment outcome.Results: At baseline, mean logMAR BCVA was 0.06 (range Snellen equivalent 6/20 to 24/20); 24 months later, it was 0.01 (Snellen equivalent 6/20 to 24/20; P=0.3). At 3 months, PED had completely flattened in 8, decreased in height in 2, and remained unchanged in 2. The CCT in eyes with PED was 410 μm and thicker than that in fellow eyes (290 μm, P<0.0001). Recurrence was noted in 2 within 12 months after treatment. Eyes in which the choroidal thickness with a baseline CCT >350μm or a 100 μm difference in CCT responded favorably to half-dose PDT (P=0.02).Conclusion: Half-dose PDT is effective in patients with non-neovascular PED. Thicker choroid and some difference in CCT between affected and fellow eye might be a good index for predicting the efficacy of this treatment.Keywords: epithelial detachment, serous pigment epithelial detachment, non-neovascular pigment photodynamic therapy, photodynamic therapyInoda STakahashi HInoue YTampo HSakamoto SArai YKawashima HYanagi YDove Medical Pressarticleepithelial detachmentserous pigment epithelial detachmentnon-neovascular pigment photodynamic therapyphotodynamic therapyOphthalmologyRE1-994ENClinical Ophthalmology, Vol Volume 13, Pp 959-968 (2019)
