Exxagerated emotional stress can cause poor vision in some people.This is an overlay of the retinal photo over the retinal angiogram of a young man with poor vision. He had been suffering from a condition called central serous retinopathy in which there is fluid collection in the center of the retina. This causes distortion of the central vision in the affected eye. Common causes are excessive stress in susceptible individuals, or use of steroid medications in any form.
Though generally a self limited condition, some people may need treatment in case the fluid persists for a long time. This man was treated with retinal laser.
Do you know any friend who might have similar symptoms?
