A 79-year-old woman with persistent cortical blindness caused by bilateral temporo-occipital infarctions was followed for 8 months. She had no light or visual motion perception. Our patient's visual imagery was intact, which was demonstrated when drawing elementary shapes; however, her drawing of objects was poor.
