(adding to heading "History")

After Bonnet’s grandfather received bilateral cataract surgery, his vision evolved from slightly better to complete deterioration over time.[1] It was around this period that his visual hallucinations started.[1] Even though his health was in good shape and he had an absence of any psychiatric disorders, the source of the hallucinations remained unknown.[1] At forty years old, Charles Bonnet himself suffered from an unrevealed cause of severe vision loss.[1]

In 1967, French-Swiss neurologist, Georges de Morsier, coined the term Charles Bonnet Syndrome in Bonnet's honor.[2]
