Abstract

A 70-year-old man visited a psychiatric clinic with persistent visual hallucinations for the past year and a half. Initially, the patient perceived black spots, which would disappear upon closing his eyes and give way to images of a man and an animal. This old man underwent a comprehensive cognitive examination using the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA-Ina), which showed no cognitive, mood, or delusional disorders. The treatment plan included prescribing risperidone and lorazepam, providing psychoeducation to the patient and his family, and collaborating with the Departments of Internal Medicine and Ophthalmology for comprehensive care.
