So, facial agnosia. Here we are talking about a situation when a person’s ability to recognize familiar faces is impaired. At the same time, all of his visual functions remain intact, that is, his visual fields and acuity are not impaired. He can recognize someone by their voice, gait, figure. But he does not recognize anyone else or himself in person. He can say: what is this, what a horror, it’s not me. The problem here is that the person begins to develop anxiety, worry, because he sees something strange in the place of the familiar.
