Medicine:Entomopia
From HandWiki
Entomopia (from the Greek roots for "insect" and "eye"), is a form of polyopia in which a grid-like pattern of multiple copies of the same visual image is seen.[1] Entomopia may be due to disease of the occipital lobe, defects in visual integration and fixation or incomplete visual processing due to poor visuospatial localisation in the hemianopic field,[2] although its causes are unknown.[3] Reassurance may be the only treatment.[3]
