Visual snow is now recognized as a true physiological disorder. Previously, physicians unaware of this syndrome may have misinterpreted its symptoms as a persistent visual aura. By promoting awareness of this syndrome, greater quantitative and qualitative research may expand our understanding and treatment of this disorder. |
