Will retinitis pigmentosa cause blindness?

Patient's question:

A few days ago, I suddenly felt that there was something wrong with my eyes, and my vision had dropped significantly. Everything around me seemed darker, as if the color saturation had dimmed, and the colors were different from what I usually see. I went to the hospital for a thorough examination, and it was confirmed that I have central serous chorioretinopathy. Will I go blind?

Doctor's answer:

Central serous chorioretinopathy, as long as timely treatment is administered, will never lead to blindness. It can first be considered for conservative drug treatment, but the specific medication must be used under the guidance of a doctor. Avoid using medication blindly, and during the gradual recovery period, pay close attention to proper nutrition, get as much rest as possible, reduce staying up late, and minimize the use of electronic devices. If the medication is ineffective, laser surgery can be considered.
