Central serous chorioretinopathy associated with administration of sympathomimetic agents.

Abstract:

PURPOSE:To report central serous chorioretinopathy associated with excessive use of compounds with sympathomimetic activity. DESIGN:Observational case series. METHODS:Four patients presented with clinical and fluorescein angiographic evidence of central serous chorioretinopathy. All patients expressed a concomitant psychogenic stress and high-dose ingestion of pseudoephedrine, oxymetazoline, or 3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine, all of which possess sympathomimetic properties. RESULTS:In all cases, resolution of central serous chorioretinopathy coincided with cessation of the medication. CONCLUSIONS:Patients afflicted with central serous chorioretinopathy should be notified about its possible association with sympathomimetic medications.
