Abstract
Central serous chorioretinopathy is a common disease of the retina, often mistaken for degeneration of the macula or uveitis. The disease is related to stress and treatment is with glucocorticoids, but it is also seen in connection with pregnancy. The disease can lead to permanent visual loss. Patients with blurred vision, metamorphopsia and micropsia should be examined by an ophthalmologist within 24 hours because the condition may involve treatment-eligible subretinal neovascularization.
