A patient with chronic schizophrenia who had visual hallucinations of lilliputian nature is described. The authors review the studies on prevalence of visual hallucinations in schizophrenic patients and suggest that visual hallucinations may be more common in schizophrenia than previously acknowledged. The authors suggest a routine enquiry about visual hallucination in clinical practice and emphasize the need for further research under controlled conditions.
