The ophthalmological examination was conducted. Data collected were analyzed by appropriate statistical tests

Results- Most common associated factor is unknown but others include stress, gastritis, type a personality, steroid intake

Conclusions- Stressful life was found to be a major risk factor. Majority of cases self-resolve without treatment and treatment of associated factor results in early and better improvement of VA and clinical features in span of 3-6 months
