Functional visual loss.

Robert A Egan1.   

Abstract

Functional visual loss is a common problem encountered in practice. It must be recognized that this problem occurs in patients who have organic illness. Manual perimetry is the most effective method for evaluating functional visual loss, and the presence of a central scotoma in a functional visual field strongly suggests that organic pathology is present. Neuropsychological and psychiatric intervention can be useful in treating these patients.
