Astrezie
Definition
An extremely rare medical term, sometimes used in older neurological semiology or as a rare clinical jargon variant to describe a severe form of astreopsia (the structural pathological inability to perceive object movement in three-dimensional space or the lack of stereoscopic vision). This complex visual-perceptual dysfunction is caused by bilateral cortical lesions in the secondary visual area, severely affecting the patient's spatial orientation.
