S2 Ep1644: Charles Bonnet Syndrome In Children


Listen Later

On the Happy Hour this week, we're going to chat about Charles Bonnet Syndrome, a condition that causes people who have experienced sight loss to see things that are not there.

In recent years, we’ve seen a raise in awareness of the condition, however, what many might still not realise is that these hallucinations can appear at any age.

We’re joined now by Judith Potts, Founder and Trustee of charity Esme's Umbrella, as well as Aliza Rehman, who’s been involved in their current campaign raising awareness of the condition in children.
