High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Xanthopsia refers to the predominance of yellow in vision due to a yellowing of the optic media of the eye. The most common cause is digoxin toxicity and the development of cataracts which can cause a yellow filtering effect. It has been suggested that Digitalis-derived digoxin, used to treat heart failure, induced xanthopsia responsible for the yellow tinting exhibited by many of Van Gogh's works. Digoxin (INN), also known as digitalis, is a purified cardiac glycoside extracted from the foxglove plant, Digitalis lanata.
