How long it takes to recover from a choroidal detachment is related to the severity of the condition, with most patients usually recovering in about 15 days, while a few patients fail to recover with conservative treatment and require surgical treatment to reset the choroid. Choroidal detachment can be caused by a number of reasons, such as uveitis, trauma to the eye, or secondary manifestations after ophthalmic surgery. Typically, choroidal detachment should be treated with hormonal medications after an ophthalmologist’s visit to minimize choroidal leakage, and most patients recover in about 15 days. However, there are patients with more stubborn conditions, especially choroidal detachment caused by trauma, may not be able to recover through conservative treatment, then it is necessary to release the subchoroidal fluid through surgical treatment, in order to promote its reset, which may take a relatively long time. Choroidal detachment should be treated promptly and in accordance with medical advice.
