What is Palinopsia?

Palinopsia is a visual disturbance that causes images to persist to some extent even after their corresponding stimulus has left. These images are known as afterimages and occur in persons with normal vision. However, a person with palinopsia experiences them to a significantly greater degree, to the point where they become difficult or impossible to ignore.

Mission

The Palinopsia Foundation was founded in 2011 with one mission: to raise money to fund palinospia research in hopes of finding better treatments options and eventually a cure. This goal is the heart of the foundation and it fuels our efforts on a daily basis.
