Retrospective study compares outcomes of central serous chorioretinopathy in Black and White patients, highlighting significant differences.

This study aims to compare the baseline characteristics and outcomes of central serous chorioretinopathy in Black and White patients.
Retrospective, multicenter analysis from the MICRoN study group
Included 450 patients with 100 Black and 350 White individuals
Analyzed demographic and imaging parameters, employing regression models for outcome factors.
Black patients had worse baseline visual acuity (0.3 versus 0.2 logMAR, p<0.001) and greater retinal detachment height (157.9 versus 107.5 μm, p=0.002)
White patients had higher disease recurrence rates (35.7% versus 19%, p=0.002) during 24 months
Multivariable regression showed Black patients had lower recurrence risk (OR 0.52, p=0.03).
