Dear XXXXXXX,
Thank you for posting your query.
From the reports that you have sent, it looks like a minor fluid collection in the inner layers of your retina in your left eye. There are two possibilities with this presentation:

1) Central serous retinopathy
2) Pigment epithelial detachment

As I believe that more information can help a physician arrive at an accurate diagnosis, I would request you to answer the following questions:
•     Are you experiencing any sort of visual disturbance in your left eye?
•     What is your current visual acuity?

Please reply with more details and I will get back to you.
Awaiting your reply.


Best regards,
Dr.Mihir Shah
