@jlam1950 This is interesting information that you've shared.
Where did your read"98% of people form vivid visual "lictures" and accurate colors "in their mind's eye". Is aphantasia considered a disorder? Who are the researchers and where did this researchers publish their finding?
Following up on what others posted here, would you please explain the terms you used and how this is an issue for you? Did you experience changes in your own memory due to TIA's (transient ischemic attacks)?

This is all new to me, since I was never aware that others can close their eyes and actually visualize things they have seen. When I close my eyes, I can think of, say, the color green, or my cat here on my lap. But I've no image in my mind's eye. It's simply smudged pinkish grays. (Probably seeing some light through my eyelids. ) As for any related abilities, I am trying to find out what studies have been done. I have absolutely no idea.
