Risk Factors of Central Serous Chorioretinopathy among Nepali Population
This is first study in Nepal to report higher prevalence of CSCR in tharu ethnic group. Young adult male, alcohol drinking and short axial length are other significant risk factors of CSCR among Nepali population. Although the study does not establish temporal causation, it underscores need to suspect CSCR in tharu patients presenting with relevant symptoms. Further research is warranted to explore why the tharu population is more susceptible to CSCR.
