Visual snow syndrome (VSS) is a neurological disorder characterized by intrusive visual symptoms and associated with dysregulation in brain networks, including the Salience Network, Default Mode Network, and thalamocortical circuits. This perspective paper examines the application of mindfulness-based cognitive therapy modified for visual symptoms (MBCT-vision) as an intervention for VSS....
Visual snow syndrome (VSS) is associated with functional connectivity (FC) dysregulation of visual networks (VNs). We hypothesized that mindfulness-based cognitive therapy, customized for visual symptoms (MBCT-vision), can treat VSS and modulate dysfunctional VNs. An open-label feasibility study for an 8-week MBCT-vision treatment program was conducted. Primary (symptom severity; impact on...
