Hello, I just wanted to let you know of research being conducted at the University of Minnesota, Twin Cities on Prosopagnosia. We are interested, specifically, about how this disorder affects children. You can check out our website or send us an email (yonaslab@umn.edu) to find out more information!

@mastermalone Hi Mastermalone - You said YOU'VE always had prosopagnisia. The lenses are for you, not your son.

[mastermalone]

@DyslexiaTutor LOL! That's an interesting suggestion, but my son is only 2 1/2. I can barely get him to sit still for a hair cut and that's only if he can watch a video while I'm cutting his hair. I can't imagine he'd let me stick my finger in his eye and it might not be safe at his age either.

People with this condition can often be helped with colored lenses that help to give contrast to the features. Look up Irlen's website to find out more. IT seems different wavelengths of light are processed by the brain at different speeds making a distorted image. The color that helps varies with each individual. It is life changing when people to settle their distortions. It's not always possible to find the perfect color but people often find one that improves perception a lot.

@mastermalone In response to your post a year ago on the video about prosopagnosia - have you tried colored lenses? They can often provide distinction and definition.

I wouldn't call having prosopagnosia scary. I've always had it so I guess I don't know what it would be like to be able to recognize people and all of the sudden lose that ability. I end up in a lot of embarrassing situations because of it. I guess the only part of it that does scare me is the thought that I might take my child out in public and have him get lost and not be able to find him. I watch him like a hawk because of this and probably will until he's old enough to learn to stay close.
