Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

  • \- Male and female patients \>\= 18 years of age who are able to give written informed consent
  • \- Presence of active chronic central serous chorioretinopathy (CSC)
  • \- Subjective visual loss \> 6 weeks, interpreted as onset of active disease
  • \- Subretinal fluid that includes the fovea on optical coherence tomography (OCT) scanning at
  • Baseline Examination.
  • PLEASE NOTE: Subretinal fluid does not have to include fovea on OCT to be eligible for treatment at Control Visit 1, as long as there is persistent subretinal fluid in the macula, which is interpreted as persistently active disease
  • \- Hyperfluorescent areas on indocyanin green (ICG) angiography
  • \- \>\=1 ill\-defined hyperfluorescent leakage areas on fluorescein angiography (FA) with retinal pigment epithelial window defect(s) that are compatible with chronic CSC

Exclusion Criteria

  • \- Any previous treatments for active CSC in the study eye
  • \- Current treatment with corticosteroids (topical or systemic), or anticipated start of corticosteroid treatment within the first 7\-8 months from the start of the trial period
  • \- Evidence of other diagnosis that can explain serous subretinal fluid or visual loss
  • \- BCVA \< 20/200 (Snellen equivalent)
  • \- Profound chorioretinal atrophy in central macular area on ophthalmoscopy and OCT
  • \- Myopia \> 6D
  • \- Visual loss and/or serous detachment on OCT \< 6 weeks
  • \- Continuous and/or progressive visual loss \> 18 months or serous detachment on OCT \> 18 months
  • \- No hyperfluorescence on ICG angiography
  • \- Intraretinal edema on OCT
