A case report published in @thelancetgroup presents what may be the first realistic visualizations of facial distortions experienced by a patient with #prosopometamorphopsia (PMO). 

The study details the case of a 58-year-old patient, V.S., who described seeing people's faces as "demonic" due to severely stretched features and deep grooves in the forehead, cheeks, and chin.
