Central serous chorioretinopathy associated with nonspecific orbital inflammation: a case report.

We herein present a rare case of acute central serous chorioretinopathy (CSC) associated with nonspecific orbital inflammation (NSOI). A 38-year-old woman presented with a 3-day history of ocular pain, reduced vision, periorbital swelling, proptosis, conjunctival chemosis, and restricted eye movements. Optical coherence tomography of the affected eye confirmed signs of CSC. Additionally, a computed tomography scan revealed enlargement of intraconal soft tissues and the lacrimal gland. Ocular ultrasonography detected posterior sclera thickening, indicating posterior scleritis. Following the diagnosis of NSOI, the patient received treatment with systemic corticosteroids, resulting in gradual regression of both the orbital inflammation and CSC. This is the first reported case of localized posterior pole CSC documented in a patient with NSOI. Vigilant monitoring for any ocular disorders is important in patients with orbital inflammation.
