Entoptic Phenomenon

Entoptic phenomena are visual illusions that arise as a result of incorrect processing of information by the visual system. They can be caused by various factors such as eye fatigue, vision problems, exposure to medications, etc.

One of the most common entoptic phenomena is hallucination - the appearance in a person’s field of vision of various images that are not related to real objects. For example, when looking at a bright light, you may see points or lines of light that may move or change shape.

There is also an entoptic illusion, when a person sees objects in a distorted form. For example, a circle may appear to be a square or a triangle may appear to be an oval.
