caffeine avoidance
Treatment for Visual Snow Syndrome
Caffeine avoidance in Visual Snow Syndrome is recommended due to its adenosine receptor antagonism and potential neurological excitatory effects, which may exacerbate visual cortex hypermetabolism and neuronal hyperexcitability. By reducing caffeine intake, patients may experience decreased visual static, improved neurological symptom management, and potentially modulate cortical hyperactivity associated with the syndrome.
