Treatment of Central Serous Chorioretinopathy by Beta-blocking Agents 
Chrapek O., Špačková K., Řehák J. 

Oční klinika FN a LF UP, Olomouc, přednosta doc. MUDr. Jiří Řehák, CSc.
 


Summary:

       On a group of 13 eyes the authors evaluate their experience with medicamentous treatment of central serous chorioretinopathy. For treatment they used the nonselective beta-blocker Trimepranol, 2x5mg/day. They found that in 11 eyes, in 84.6 % cases, adherence of the ablated neuroepithelium of the macula occurred latest within four months of treatment, in two eyes (15.4 %) this therapeutic dose did not lead to remission of the disease even after four months of treatment and the condition was evaluated as failure of treatment. The authors conclude that a therapeutic dose of Trimepranol of 2x5mg/day is not a reliable therapeutic solution of central serous chorioretinopathy.

        Key words: central serous chorioretinopathy - beta-blockers
