'DEMON FACE SYNDROME': Related to BLACK-EYED KIDS or PEOPLE PHENOMENON? (VIDEO)

An extremely terrifying claim is made by the man in this video, who says that a man he regularly sees as normal now appears to have a demon-like face.

It was recently reported that a study is revealing the terrifying experiences of people who have a rare condition known as "demon face syndrome."

'Demon face syndrome,' also known as prosopometamorphopsia (PMO), is a rare neurological disorder that causes people to see other people's faces as distorted, sometimes in ways that appear demonic. These distortions can include shape, size, texture, or color changes, making faces appear swollen, droopy, discolored, or shifted in position. In some cases, faces may appear made of tree bark, swapped out with mythical creatures, or completely contorted. The distortions only occur when people with PMO see faces in person, and not in photographs or on screens.

The exact cause of PMO is not fully understood, but some cases may be linked to head trauma, stroke, epilepsy, or migraines. For example, one man with PMO experienced a head injury after falling backward and hitting his head on concrete while trying to unjam a trailer door. He also experienced carbon monoxide poisoning four months before his symptoms began, and MRI scans showed a lesion in his brain's hippocampus. 

As of June 2021, only 81 cases of PMO had been documented in published literature, but some say likely many more people are living with the condition. Researchers hope their work on PMO will help raise awareness and prevent misdiagnoses.

Here is an interesting article describing a woman's experiences with the condition.

This question then needs to be asked: "Is demon face syndrome a possible explanation or, at least, connected to the black-eyed kids (BEK) or black-eyed people phenomenon?" What are your thoughts?
