Classification of diseases according to the affected structures.

		Disease
		White dot syndromes				Stromal choroiditis
		APMPPE	Serpiginous-like choroiditis	MCP	ASPPC	Harada
Affected tissue; (timing-extent)	Choriocapillaris	Primary; Predominant	Primary	Secondary	Minimal	—
	Choroidal; stroma	Secondary; (nonperfusion)	Secondary; (nonperfusion)	Secondary	Minimal	Primary; Predominant
	RPE	Secondary	Secondary; Predominant	Primary; Predominant	Primary; Predominant	Minimal
	Outer/inner; retina	Secondary; (outer)	Secondary; (outer)	Secondary; (outer)	Secondary; (outer)	Secondary; (outer)
Proposed; imaging	Initial	FAF-ICGA	FAF-ICGA	FAF-ICGA	FAF-ICGA-OCT	OCT + ICGA
	Follow-up	FAF-ICGA-; (OCT)	FAF-; (OCT)	FAF-; (OCT)	FAF-OCT	OCT + ICGA

APMPEE: acute posterior multifocal placoid pigment epitheliopathy; MCP: multifocal choroiditis panuveitis; ASPPC: acute syphilitic posterior placoid chorioretinitis; RPE: retinal pigment epithelium; FAF: fundus autofluorescence; ICGA: indocyanine green angiography; and OCT: optical coherence tomography. Primary: the tissue/structure affected first; secondary: tissue affected after the primary attack; predominant: the tissue affected in most extent; OCT: complementary imaging for evaluation of photoreceptors layer; minimal: tissue affected in less extent.
