Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Examine the efficacy of brinzolamide for the treatment of central serous chorioretinopathy

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Brinzolamide is a carbonic anhydrase inhibitor. Previously, carbonic anhydrase inhibitors have been shown to be effective for the treatment of macular edema when administered orally, also for central serous chorioretinopathy. However, this treatment carries the risk of severe side effects.

The goal of this study is to examine the efficacy of the topical form of treatment of carbonic anhydrase inhibitors in patients with chronic, non-resolving, central serous chorioretinopathy.
