Zusammenfassung:Purpose To investigate the clinical characteristics of central serous chorioretinopathy (CSC) with age. Study design Retrospective, cross-sectional study. Methods One-hundred and forty-seven CSC patients were classified into three age groups (aged 70 years (senior group; n=26)) and the characteristics were compared. Bilateral ophthalmic evaluation included the best corrected visual acuity (BCVA), spherical equivalents, fundus examination, fundus autofluorescence, optical coherence tomography (OCT), fluorescein angiography (FA), and indocyanine green angiography. Results The male/female ratio became lower at more advanced ages (P=0.011). Bilateral macular abnormalities were observed more frequently in the senior group than the other groups (p=0.018) and multiple drusen were characteristic in the senior group (p
