Background: Polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy (PCV) is an exudative maculopathy with features similar to wet age macular degeneration. The incidence of PCV is known to be higher in the Asian population compared to Caucasians. Imaging modality is needed to make the diagnosis of PCV. Although Indocyanine green angiography (ICGA) is still the gold standard, it is not routinely performed in vitreoretinal practice. Thus another imaging modality is currently a popular research area. Spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) has emerged as a new imaging modality mostly available in clinics. Some studies have reported the sensitivity and specificity of SD-OCT in diagnosing PCV with different results and thresholds. Methods: Relevant studies from PubMed, Science Direct and Google Scholar databases were systematically searched. In random effect models using STATA 14 software, a meta-analysis was performed to determine the pooled diagnostic accuracy. QUADAS 2 was used to evaluate the risk of bias of each study by Revman 5.4 software. Results: Seven eligible studies which met the inclusion and exclusion criteria were enrolled in this study. A total of 911 eyes were included to investigate the diagnostic accuracy of SD-OCT. As a result, the pooled sensitivity was 0.91 (95% CI 0.87–0.93), specificity 0.88 (95% 0.83–0.92), positive likelihood ratio 8, negative likelihood ratio 11, the area under the summary receiver operating characteristic curve 0.95 (95% CI 0.93–0.97), and diagnostic odds ratio 71.81 (95% CI 38.89–132.74). Conclusion: SD-OCT provided a high diagnostic value for detecting PCV. Sharply peaked pigment epithelial detachment (PED), notched PED, bubble sign, multiple PED, and double-layer sign were the most common features found in PCV. © 2022, The Author(s).
