Central serous chorioretinopathy (CSC) is a retinal disorder characterised by serous detachment of the neurosensory retina, predominantly affecting young and middle-aged males. Psychological stress has been recognised as an important precipitating factor. We report a case of a 37-year-old male who presented with sudden, painless visual deterioration in the left eye associated with increased occupational stress. Clinical examination and optical coherence tomography (OCT) confirmed the diagnosis of CSC. The patient was managed conservatively with observation and stress reduction counselling, resulting in complete anatomical and visual recovery within one month. This case highlights the importance of identifying work-related stress as a modifiable risk factor in CSC.
