Idiopathic multiple serous detachments of the retinal pigment epithelium: a report of two cases.
A relatively uncommon entity is described which is characterized by idiopathic serous detachments of the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE). In contrast to RPE detachments associated with the spectrum of age-related macular degeneration and other choroidal diseases, the visual prognosis in this entity is usually good. In some respects, idiopathic serous RPE detachments display characteristics similar to idiopathic central serous chorioretinopathy and could be a variant thereof. The differential diagnosis also includes multifocal Best's vitelliform dystrophy.
