Abstract: Disorders of visual perception are well known to occur in posterior circulation strokes. Visual field defects are common and are a component of the NIHSS. Other deficits to name a few include visual agnosias, achromatopsia, illusions and hallucinations. These deficits are almost exclusively due to cortical lesions in the occipital lobe or its border zones. Inverted vision, or upside-down vision, is a very rare presentation of stroke.
