Description |
Nonorganic vision loss (NOVL) is characterized by the onset of a visual deficit or disturbance that cannot be explained by organic pathology. Typically, patients present with subjective visual complaints, but extensive diagnostic imaging, labs, and exams reveal no abnormalities. We present an unusual presentation of NOVL in which a child presents with an abrupt onset of a persistent monocular visual field deficit. |
