    Visual field-right superior quadrantanopia. Lesions of right temporal lobe (meyer's Loop) of the optic radiation on one side produces a loss of the upper, outer quadrant of vision on the contralateral side, known as homonymous superior quadrantanopia or superior quadrantic hemianopia. [25] This is also known as pie in the sky disorder. [3]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internuclear_ophthalmoplegia

    Internuclear ophthalmoplegia (INO) is a disorder of conjugate lateral gaze in which the affected eye shows impairment of adduction. When an attempt is made to gaze contralaterally (relative to the affected eye), the affected eye adducts minimally, if at all. The contralateral eye abducts, however with nystagmus.

  9. Micropsia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Micropsia

    Micropsia is a condition affecting human visual perception in which objects are perceived to be smaller than they actually are. Micropsia can be caused by optical factors (such as wearing glasses), by distortion of images in the eye (such as optically, via swelling of the cornea or from changes in the shape of the retina such as from retinal edema, macular degeneration, or central serous ...
