A 26-year-old man developed visual snow syndrome (VSS) after consuming a little less than half of a delta-8 gummy (estimated at 4 mg of delta-8 tetrahydrocannabinol). Secondary VSS and hallucinogen-persisting perception disorder (HPPD) are discussed, and clinicians who evaluate patients with VS and VSS should ask about delta-8 gummies as an etiology of secondary VSS.
