Materials and methods: We analyzed retrospectively the records of patients diagnosed with CSCR who were followed and treated at Akdeniz University Faculty of Medicine, Ophthalmology Department between April 2010 and January 2016. Sixty-nine eyes of 59 patients who were diagnosed with acute CSCR were included in the study.The demographic characteristics (age, sex, systemic diseases, drugs used, etc.), examination findings, pre- and post-treatment examinations and OCT findings were recorded. Initial and fi nal best corrected visual acuities (BCVA) and central macular thickness (CMT) of patients were recorded and analyzed.

Results: The mean ages of 59 cases of acute CSCR were 42.49 ± 8.92 (23-73) and there were 46 (78%) men, 13 (22 %) women. The highest rates of systemic disease association hypertension (HT) (16.9%) (n = 10) and diabetes mellitus (DM) (n = 10) were seen. 12 patients had a history of steroid use (20,3%). As a result of psychiatric consultation 52 patients (88,1%) had type A personality disorder and stress. Smoking (50,8%) and alcohol (15.3%) were higher in patients with CSCR were seen. At the beginning the mean CMT and BCVA was 336.89±17,57, 0,24±0,03 logMar and at the end of the treatment it was regressed to 298,61±15,97, 0,06±0,02 logMar, respectively.

Conclusion: According to the results of our study there is a strong relationship between acute CSCR with type A personality structure and stress. There is a slightly weaker relationship between acute CSCR with steroid, smoking and alcohol use as well as diseases affecting vascular functions such as HT and DM and in this patients a high rate of improvement with medical treatment was observed.
