The "Tap-Drain" model of central serous chorioretinopathy: Mechanistic staging and a Corrective Action-Preventative Action-based framework for disease modification.
The Tap-Drain model is proposed, a physiology-based conceptual framework that reconceptualizes CSCR as a disorder of outer retinal fluid homeostasis and shifts treatment goals beyond episodic SRF resolution toward recurrence prevention, preservation of retinal structure, and maintenance of long-term visual function.
