Scotoma Centrocecal

Scotoma Central intestinal

(Syndromum centrocecalis) is a rare clinical form of eye disease of unknown origin. It is characterized by blindness in one half of the visual field and the occurrence of various visual disturbances in the central region, closer to the midline of the fundus. The disease was described by the German physician G.N. Frenz in 1833. Currently, it is developed as a syndrome, since in some cases it is predominantly local in nature. There are two known types of the syndrome: intermittent and stationary scotoma. The syndrome is more common in men aged 30-40 years.
