Abstract

Three cases with unusual and interesting symptomatology are presented. In each case the symptoms alone can lead the physician to an accurate localization of the lesion.

Pulfrich revisited
1997, Survey of Ophthalmology
The Pulfrich phenomenon is a stereo-illusion resulting from latency disparities in the visual pathways. It is common after optic neuritis, but is also to be found with other conditions. The symptoms are often difficult for the patient to explain and for the physician to understand. Symptoms may be sufficiently disturbing to significantly interfere with a patient's life (e.g., prevention of driving). Treatment with the use of monocular tints is simple and effective.
