Post-COVID-19 aphantasia

Abstract

Despite the fact that the term aphantasia was coined only 6 years ago, such fascinating neurological condition has captured the imagination of the neuroscience community. The condition is congenital in most cases but can be very distressing when suddenly acquired. The authors report a case of acquired aphantasia following a case of mild COVID-19 hoping to raise awareness of the possibility of such uncommon neuropsychological syndromes to follow mild cases of COVID-19 infections.
