Google Trends Analyses and Case Report: A Persistently Dilated Pupil in Psychedelics’ User

Global Journal of Health Science September 18, 2017 Ahmed Al-Imam 1 citation

An 18-year-old Caucasian woman from New Zealand presented with persistently dilated pupils in both eyes, causing discomfort and oversensitivity to sunlight, although her pupillary light reflex remained intact. She had used psychedelic substances including LSD, NBOMe, psilocybin, and DMT. Medical, neurological, and radiological examinations, including EEG and MRI of the head and neck, found no abnormalities. She had chronic endogenous depression and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, treated with citalopram and Ritalin. No family history or congenital condition was present. Collateral analyses using Google Trends data explored geographic patterns related to psychedelic substances.
