    This modified Swinging Flashlight Test differentiates visual disturbances in patients with clear eyes and normal fundi. It also provides photographic documentation and avoids artifacts found in the original test.

    Area of Science:

    • Ophthalmology
    • Visual Neuroscience

    Context:

    • Distinguishing between organic and functional unilateral visual disturbances is crucial for accurate diagnosis.
    • Existing screening methods may be prone to artifacts or lack objective documentation.

    Purpose:

    • To present a modified Swinging Flashlight Test for differentiating unilateral visual disturbances.
    • To incorporate photographic documentation and minimize artifacts.

    Summary:

    • The modified Swinging Flashlight Test allows for the differentiation of unilateral organic and functional visual disturbances in patients with clear ocular media and normal fundi.
    • This method includes photographic documentation of findings.
    • It effectively excludes artifacts inherent in the traditional Swinging Flashlight Test.
