Scotoma
A scotoma is a spot or area in your vision where you cannot see, even though your eyes and brain are functioning normally. It’s like a blind patch within your field of view. These blind spots can vary in size—from tiny points to larger areas—and may be caused by issues such as eye diseases, neurological conditions, or injuries. Some scotomas develop gradually, while others appear suddenly. If you notice any new blind spots or changes in your vision, it’s important to consult an eye care professional for assessment and appropriate treatment.
