Infrared (IR) imaging improved by using scanning laser ophthalmoscopy. The greater penetration of infrared light compared with visible wavelengths permits better visualization of subretinal structures such as drusen, hyperpigmentations and choroidal new vessels. Furthermore, using the indirect mode of the instrument to detect laterally scattered light, drusen and shallow detachments of the neuroretina can easily be visualized as prominent structures. In this study we investigated the potential use of non-invasive infrared imaging in follow-up examination of patients with central serous chorioretinopathy (CSCR).
