Bilateral Serous Retinal Detachment as a Complication of HELLP Syndrome
Round 1
Reviewer 1 Report
This is a case report about a macular serous detachment related to hellp syndrome. This is quite interesting and nice. I would like you to comment which is the paper of corticosteroids, and could we only improve arterial pressure and the return to non-pregnant state could only lead to improvement of this syndrome.
Everything is ok

Reviewer 2 Report
In this paper, Teodoru et al. describe a case of HELLP syndrome with bilateral exudative retinopathy.
1. Hypertensive choroidopathy is well-described, yet never mentioned as a pathophysiological cause in relation to HELLP. The authors need to discuss hypertensive choroidopathy.
2. At several locations, the authors state "HELP" which should be "HELLP"
Dear Editor,
Thanks for the invitation to provide comments to this case report.
Not a novel case per se, as this is likely caused by hypertensive choriodopathy. But the relation to HELLP provide some novelty. I have few comments to the authors, of which #1 is major and requires extensive discussion.
Best wishes,
Yousif
