Scotoma effect
Seems to be a neologism. Generates 11 Google hits. CrypticBacon 09:30, 26 February 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete. "Scotoma effect" as used within the current article can only be found in one of those Google hits &mdash; and the site itself is one I'd hardly consider to be an authority. "Scotoma effect" can also refer to the effects of scotoma (a vision problem), as seen in the rest of the Google searches. However, specifically using this phrase as any type of "official" name for the condition would simply be a neologism, in the same way that we don't have articles for "glaucoma effect" or "amblyopia effect." &mdash; Rebelguys2 talk 11:33, 26 February 2006 (UTC)
