Abstract

AMISULPIRIDE INDUCED DYSMEGALOPSIA: DIAGNOSTIC DILEMMA

Dr. Prerna Kukreti*

ABSTRACT

Dysmegalopsia is a disorder of perception characterized by distorted perception of spatial intensity. It is usually seen in central nervous system lesions, especially temporal lobe, but also can be seen in disorders of accommodation or in few drug poisonings. We report a rare case of transient dysmegalopsia induced by a psychotropic amisulpiride; with complete resolution on discontinuation of medicine. Mental health professionals need to be cautious for such reversible opthalmological side effects of psychotropics, which often are disregarded as part of psychopathology or illness in persons with psychotic disorders.
