a Appearance of the RCH at presentation when examined under a Goldmann 3-mirror lens. It was located near the ora serrata with minimal surrounding exudates. b Fundus photo of the right eye shows the subsequent enlargement of the RCH and the associated increase in the amount of SRF and exudates. The largest diameter of the RCH measured up to 12 mm. c SRF and exudates from the RCH extended to involve the macula.

Examination showed a grade-1 epiretinal membrane at the macula and a small RCH in the peripheral retina near the ora serrata at 12 o'clock (fig.1a). There was a significant increase in the size of the RCH (largest diameter up to 12 mm), with the surrounding subretinal fluid (SRF) and exudation extended to the macula (fig. 1b, c).
Fundus photo taken 5 months after PDT shows the complete resolution of SRF and exudates. Chorioretinal scars from previous laser photocoagulation of the feeder vessels can be seen in the superior quadrant. The RCH reduced in size and cannot be visualized in the area covered in this photo.

Five months after PDT, the SRF surrounding the RCH resolved completely with a reduction in size of the RCH (fig. 2).
