Objective: To observe the efficiency of Shugan Yijing decoction combining with laser in treatment of central serous retinopathy. Method: A retrospective analysis on the one hundred and twenty-six patients with central serous retinopathy in our hospital from January 2010 to December 2011

the 126 cases were randomly divided into two groups: treatment group (n=62) and the control group (n=64)

the treatment group was treated with Shugan Yijing decoction combining with laser treatment

the control group was treated with traditional treatment

the treatment course was 30 d. The best corrected visual acuity and average light sensitivity index were observed. Result: After treatment

compared with control group

average light sensitivity was better than that in control group

the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). Conclusion: Shugan Yijing decoction combining with laser treatment can protect the abnormal visual function with safety and efficiency.
