Abstract:
Central serous retinopathy, a disorder of healthy young men, has also been reported to occur in patients with collagen vascular disease. This is the first report discussing the occurrence of central serous retinopathy in patients with sarcoidosis. It is critical to recognize the entity because corticosteroids, used in treating sarcoidosis, can have a disastrous effect on central serous retinopathy.
