Stress-Related Vision Loss: Blurred, Wavy, or Dark Vision Could Be a Sign of CSR
Blurred, wavy, or dark spots in your central vision could be a sign of Central Serous Chorioretinopathy (CSR)—a retinal condition often linked to stress or steroid use. CSR occurs when fluid builds up under the retina, causing visual distortion or blurriness, usually in one eye. While some cases resolve on their own, chronic or recurrent CSR can lead to lasting vision loss if untreated. Learn how early detection, stress management, and modern imaging.
