    Area of Science:

    • Psychiatry
    • Neuroscience
    • Psychology

    Background:

    • Depressive states are associated with various psychopathological visual phenomena.
    • Some visual disturbances are traditionally classified as derealizational disturbances.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To describe and categorize visual phenomena within depressive states.
    • To investigate the correlation between visual perception disorders, depressive affect, and depersonalization symptoms.

    Main Methods:

    • Classification of disordered visual perception into five main types.
    • Analysis of the structure and correlation of these phenomena.
    • Electrooculographic (EOG) studies of eye movements.

    Main Results:

    • Five distinct types of disordered visual perception were identified in depression.
    • These phenomena show varying degrees of correlation with depressive affect and depersonalization.
    • Electrooculographic data revealed peculiar visual image formation in different depression forms.

    Conclusions:

    • Visual perception disorders are a significant feature of depressive states.
    • Understanding these phenomena provides insights into the sensory basis of depression.
    • Eye movement patterns offer objective markers for visual disturbances in depression.
