When you see someone’s face, do you know who that person is? Every face is different. And all of us can recognise someone from their face. Well, no – not if you’ve got ‘prosopagnosia’, which is also called ‘face blindness’.

Most of the people with face blindness have a problem in a particular part of their brain. Some of them have it from birth, and others develop it after an accident or illness. But they all have the same disability: they can’t tell who someone is by looking at their face. For example, a woman goes to meet her friend. There are two people waiting – and they both look exactly the same!

There’s no medical treatment for the condition, but there are things people with face blindness can do. These include trying to memorise everyone’s voice, body language and body shape. That usually gives them enough information to work out who someone is.

Перевод: Когда вы видите чьё-то лицо, знаете ли вы, кто этот человек? Каждое лицо отличается от других. И все мы можем узнать человека по лицу. Но это не так, если у вас прозопагнозия, которую также называют «слепотой на лица».

У большинства людей со слепотой на лица есть проблема в определённой части мозга. У некоторых она присутствует с рождения, а у других развивается после несчастного случая или болезни. Но у всех у них одно и то же расстройство: они не могут понять, кто перед ними, просто посмотрев на лицо. Например, женщина приходит встретиться с подругой. Её ждут два человека — и они выглядят совершенно одинаково!

Медицинского лечения этого состояния нет, но люди со слепотой на лица могут кое-что делать. Например, пытаться запоминать голос, язык тела и фигуру каждого человека. Обычно это даёт им достаточно информации, чтобы понять, кто перед ними.
