Description
Summary:Abstract Purpose To investigate if shift work or sleep disturbances are risk factors of central serous chorioretinopathy (CSCR). Design Prospective case control study. Methods Forty patients with active CSCR and 40 controls (age and sex matched) were prospectively recruited from Ophthalmology department of Hôtel Dieu Hospital, Paris between November 2013 and December 2014. All patients were asked to complete a questionnaire addressing previously described risk factors, working hours and the Insomnia Severity Index (ISI), a validated instrument for assessing sleep disturbances. Results The mean age of the CSCR group was 44± 9 years whereas the mean age of the control group was 43 ±10 years. By use of multivariate analysis, shift work (odd ratio (OR), 95% confidence interval: 5 [1.2-20.4] ; p=0.02), steroid use (OR: 5.5 [1.1-26.2] ; p=0.03) and recent psychological stress (OR: 15.3 [4.1-54.5] ; p
