As per patient he saw a “white sheet” in front of his eyes worse in the right eye constantly. After his eye evaluation he was referred to the neurology clinic as he complained of having difficulty finding words to express him-self. He did report of having lost 10 lbs (4.5 kg) in weight during this period but no other complains such as fever, fatigue, sweating, chest pain, shortness of breath or any other neurological complains.
