title: [Visual hallucinations in mentally healthy persons--the Charles Bonnet syndrome].
abstract: Charles Bonnet syndrome is described as complex visual hallucinations that are known to occur in individuals with impaired vision whose emotional and intellectual functions are within normal range. This paper presents a case of a 82 years old woman who experienced an individual hallucinatory episode during three days: seeing, alert and with her eyes open, different figures and images, static and moving in lovely colors that disappeared with closing her eyes and appeared as new with opening it. The diagnostic procedure comprised EEG and ophthalmologic examination. Vitamins and hemorrheologically active therapy were administrated and accompanied with explaining the nature of her problem.
