Abstract
Introduction: Central serous chorioretinopathy is an idiopathic disorder characterised by localised serous detachment of the sensory retina at the macula. Central serous chorioretinopathy typically affects young and middle-aged men. Aims and Objectives: To determine the age and sex incidence, risk factors, and the incidence of Central Serous Chorioretinopathy. Materials and Methods :A study of 50 patients between the age of 20-50 years was done in the Ophthalmology Outpatient Department of Prathima Institute of Medical Sciences for a period of two years. Results:In this study of 50 cases of central serous retinopathy, a detailed recording of case history, fundus examination and Fundus Fluorescein Angiography ( FFA) , treatment and follow up is done and the percentage of central serous chorioretinopathy is 0.24 %. Conclusion:All the cases of Central serous chorioretinopathy are between the age group of 20-70yrs. The maximum incidence in this age group can be due to high stress levels, type A personality and high incidence of smoking and alcoholism, uncontrolled hypertension and diabetes are responsible for high incidence in them.
