Alice in Wonderland Syndrome (AIWS), also known as Todd's Syndrome or Dysmetropsia, is a neurological disorder that distorts perception.People with this syndrome may experience distortions in their visual perception of objects, such as appearing smaller or larger (), or appearing to be closer or farther than they are.
Endogenous hypoglycaemia can result in number of visual disturbances and sometimes macropsia. This kind of hypoglycaemia is defined as having an abnormally low blood-sugar level due to anything other than the exogenous administration of insulin. [21] Macropsia has been observed in experimental hypoglycaemia and in patients receiving insulin ...
paralysis of a limb (monoparesis) or a larger area on one side of the body (hemiparesis) paralysis head and eye movements; inability to express oneself linguistically, described as an expressive aphasia (Broca's aphasia) focal seizures that may spread to adjacent areas (Jacksonian seizure) grand mal or tonic-clonic seizures
Beta blockers (Betimol, Istalol, Betoptic): Beta blockers reduce fluid production in the eye, relieving pressure in a similar way but through a different mechanism than prostaglandins. Side ...
Illusory palinopsia is often worse with high stimulus intensity and contrast ratio in a dark adapted state.Multiple types of illusory palinopsia often co-exist in a patient and occur with other diffuse, persistent illusory symptoms such as halos around objects, dysmetropsia (micropsia, macropsia, pelopsia, or teleopsia), Alice in Wonderland Syndrome, visual snow, and oscillopsia.
Micropsia is a condition affecting human visual perception in which objects are perceived to be smaller than they actually are. Micropsia can be caused by optical factors (such as wearing glasses), by distortion of images in the eye (such as optically, via swelling of the cornea or from changes in the shape of the retina such as from retinal edema, macular degeneration, or central serous ...
A new review reports that nine people taking semaglutide and tirzepatide — the active ingredient in GLP-1 medications — experienced vision issues, including three potentially blinding eye ...
Some patients may have asymmetry of the brain, with one side being noticeably larger than the other. [citation needed] One interesting phenomenon that seems very common in this syndrome is the tendency for disproportionate brain growth in the first few years of life, with crossing of percentiles on the head circumference growth charts.
