The gap created can be filled with blood, drusenoid material, serous exudate, or fibrovascular tissue. The condition is associated with many retinal diseases including neovascular age-related macular degeneration, angioid streaks, central serous chorioretinopathy and hereditary chorioretinal degenerations.
