Dear Sir,
We thank the authors for their interest in our paper. [1] We acknowledge the pre-existing history of central serous chorioretinopathy (CSR) and propose this as a predisposing factor in the most recent episode of central serous detachment following ocular trauma. The patient's personality type was not discussed in the article as it was not formally assessed and no assumptions can be made regarding this. We agree that it is plausible that stress caused by the trauma may have caused raised endogenous corticosteroid and that this may be a causal factor in the presentation. The underlying pathogenesis of CSR is not fully understood and the etiology of serous detachment in trauma certainly requires further investigation.
Yours sincerely,
Financial support and sponsorship
