Abstract
The Charles Bonnet syndrome comprises complex vivid visual hallucinations without significant psychopathology or disturbed consciousness and has been known for several hundred years. A consensus is lacking whether eye and brain disease are necessary or exclusionary criteria for this syndrome. We describe the recent onset of complex and vivid visual hallucinations in a 73-year-old man with macular degeneration and a history of recurrent major depression. We discuss ophthalmologic and radiographic findings in the context of syndrome cause.
