Definition

A rare acquired eye disease with characteristics of unilateral or bilateral abnormal fluid accumulation within the suprachoroidal space. This results in internal choroidal elevation in the absence of any known cause such as decreased intraocular tension, intraocular neoplasm, intraocular inflammation or nanophthalmos. Patients typically present a protracted, relapsing-remitting course of visual acuity loss and fundus examination shows annular celio-choroidal detachment and shifting, serous retinal detachment. [from SNOMEDCT_US]
