Hebrew term

עננה

Hebrew to English Medical Medical (general)
In a hospitalization summary, a patient had some sort of cerebral event. Patient reports rhythmic involuntary motions of the left hand. The physician notes:

גם לאחר ששהה מספר שעות במיון - לא פסקו. היו גם כאבים כמו שוק חשמלי. כעת עננה מעל עין שמאל

What is this עננה? Is it a cloudiness in the left eye as seen by the patient? Is it a visible sign that the physician sees on the patient's face?
Proposed translations (English)
4 clouding, cloudiness

clouding, cloudiness

I would say this is something the patient experiences, since the report mentions:
עננה **מעל** עין שמאל
hence the patient probably "sees" a clouding above his left eye. If this is a cerebral event I don't think it has any physical manifestations in the form of "cloudy" spots or something similar on the patient's face.
Something went wrong...
