Gupta Eye Hospital, Panipat – Specialized Retina Care with Compassion
Central Serous Retinopathy (CSR) is a vision-threatening condition that affects the retina, especially in young to middle-aged adults. It’s often linked to stress and high levels of cortisol, the body’s stress hormone. At Gupta Eye Hospital, Panipat, we regularly diagnose and treat CSR with advanced retina care.
What Is CSR?
CSR occurs when fluid builds up under the retina, forming a small bubble that distorts vision. This happens due to leakage from the layer beneath the retina (the choroid).
Key Symptoms of CSR:
- Blurred or dim vision
- A dark spot or gray area in the central vision
- Straight lines appearing wavy
- Difficulty focusing
- Increased sensitivity to light
Symptoms usually affect one eye but can occur in both.
Why Does Stress Cause CSR?
High stress triggers excess cortisol, which weakens blood vessels in the retina, leading to fluid leakage. Use of steroids, poor sleep, and anxiety also increase your risk.
How Is CSR Treated?
At Gupta Eye Hospital, we offer:- Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) & Retina Angiography
- Observation for mild cases
- Laser therapy or anti-VEGF injections for persistent CSR
- Stress management advice and lifestyle counseling
Most cases resolve on their own, but early detection is key to protecting your vision.
