Pooling Within a Serous Detachment in Central Serous Retinopathy (CSR)

Pooling is defined as the accumulation of leaked fluorescein within a defined anatomical space. Once this defined space is filled, the margins in pooling remain constant and distinct throughout the study (unlike full leaking which continues to grow as the scan progresses).

In CSR, there is a characteristic “ink blot” or “smoke stack” pattern.
