          COVID-19 Can Cause Face Blindness

          Navigational problems and an increased risk of developing prosopagnosia, or face blindness, have been associated with COVID-19 infection.

          How Common is Face Blindness?

          Prosopagnosia, or face blindness, is believed to affect up to 2.5% of the population. However, researchers say prosopagnosia may be on a spectrum and the number of cases may be far higher, estimating up to 1 in 33 people may meet the criteria for face blindness.

          Brain coordinates for face blindness identified

          Brain activity in the fusiform face area on the right side of the brain showed no difference in those with face blindness compared to those without the condition. However, researchers found those with prosopagnosia had reduced activity in a corresponding area on the left side of the brain.

          ‘Face blindness’ may involve a failed brain network, and could shed light on autism

          Prosopagnosia, or "face-blindness", involves an entire network, not just one area of the brain. The findings may shed light on poor facial processing abilities associated with autism.

          Inability to Recognize Faces Linked to Broader Visual Recognition Problems

          Researchers report developmental prosopagnosia, or face blindness, occurs as the results of neurobiological problems that broadly affect visual recognition.

          Different Brain Pathways are Responsible for Person and Movement Recognition

          A new study illustrates how individuals with face blindness are still able to recognize other people's movements.
