[Psychosomatic correlations in pediatric ophthalmology].
Somatopsychic disturbances encompassing both ophthalmologic as well as child-psychiatric phenomena mainly occur in ADD: Central disorders of eye motoricity (strabismus) and disorders of visual perception are encountered. Dyslexia or dysorthography often occur as secondary phenomena. The psychosomatic or psychogenic disturbances affect not only the lid mechanism but also visualization. In the lid region, nictation tics and trichotillomania of the eyebrows and eyelashes occur. Psychic impairment of vision may range from a slight amblyopia, often associated with limitation of the field of vision, to complete amaurosis. The symptomatology is described and illustrated with examples.
