Polyopia
Two or more images. Monocular polyopia would be when a person sees multiple images in one eye. Monocular polyopia is commonly described as ghosting or providing a ghost image. Binocular polyopia is multiple images only when both eyes are used, indicating strabismus, a misalignment of the eyes. Polyopia may be caused by neurological dysfunction, disease, or medication.
