Charles Bonnet syndrome (CBS) is a condition that causes visual\n   hallucinations in patients without any mental illnesses. CBS is characterized\n   by the presence of vivid, complex and recurrent visual hallucinations, and do\n   not occur in the setting or as part of delirium or other psychological\n   illnesses. The condition is present in patients who have visual loss due to\n   age-related macular degeneration (AMD), cataracts and\/or other ocular\n   diseases that influence vision. Case report. A 81-year-od woman reported to\n   ophthalmologist complaining of visual hallucinations that consisted of white\n   pigeons. Hallucinations were present for two years and she was well aware\n   that hallucinations were unreal. Mental illnesses were excluded by the\n   psychiatrist. Complete ophthalmologic examination was performed, and finding\n   revealed visual acuity of 0.3 (right eye) and 0.5 (left eye), in both eyes\n   cataracts and AMD (wet form). Optical coherence tomography confirmed the\n   fundoscopic finding of AMD. The patient rejected treatment of cataracts and\n   AMD due to old age, and hallucinations persisted. Conclusion. CBS should be\n   considered in patients with visual hallucinations and ocular diseases that\n   influence vision. It is essential to distinguish CBS from mental illnesses,\n   since patients with CBS are fully aware that hallucinations are not real.\n   Awareness of CBS could help physicians upon referring patients to\n   ophthalmologists instead of psychiatrists, and therefore avoid patients being\n   misdiagnosed.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.2298\/vsp150321140s","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2015,12,9]],"date-time":"2015-12-09T02:11:46Z","timestamp":1449627106000},"page":"881-884","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":4,"title":["Charles Bonnet syndrome"],"prefix":"10.2298","volume":"73","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-6455-5011","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Oliver","family":"Stojanov","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Health Center \u201cNovi Sad\u201d, Department of Ophthalmology, Novi Sad + Faculty of Medicine, Novi Sad"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1078","container-title":["Vojnosanitetski pregled","Military Medical and Pharmaceutical Journal of Serbia"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","deposited":{"date-parts":[[2023,5,29]],"date-time":"2023-05-29T11:15:51Z","timestamp":1685358951000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/doiserbia.nb.rs\/Article.aspx?ID=0042-84501500140S"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2016]]},"references-count":0,"journal-issue":{"issue":"9","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2016]]}},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.2298\/vsp150321140s","relation":{},"ISSN":["0042-8450","2406-0720"],"issn-type":[{"type":"print","value":"0042-8450"},{"type":"electronic","value":"2406-0720"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2016]]}}}
