NA = not available; PM = pigmentary mottling; WD = window defect; Hypo = hypofluorescence; Hyper = hyperfluorescence.
Patient 7 had bilateral lesions (2 FCEs): the right eye with 1 FCE was concurrent with CSC, and the left eye with 1 FCE was asymptomatic.
Patient 12 had two distinct lesions in the same eye concurrent with CSC.
In patient 15, secondary choroidal neovascular network was visible on choriocapillaris slab of OCTA.
Patient 17 had bilateral lesions (3 FCEs): the right eye with 1 FCE was concurrent with CSC, and the left eye with 2 distinct FCEs was asymptomatic.
Dark area in OCTA means no blood flow signal.
MSI: from 620 nm to 850 nm.
