For me the image in front of my eyes is not gone. I’m just not going to remember any details about it because my focus is inwards, on what my minds eye is showing me.
- PcChip 21d agoexactly the same for me
- cassianoleal 21d agoRight, but the question is - do you see actual images with this "mind's eye", or is it more of a sensation, a logical understanding of what you're imagining but with no real imagery?
- athorax 21d agoI see actual images, but at least for me its not anywhere near the same as actually looking at something. Its sort of like watching a low fidelity movie for me and I can't really "focus" in on specific details of what I'm visualizing. I think there is definitely a spectrum.

- randomImmigrant 20d agoOh proper images. And if I focus I can increase resolution. I can get to where it’s as good as real life, for most things. But if it’s a book character I’ve never seen, the details are more oddly distributed and not stable over time, except when the author does a really good job with descriptions. Seeing mental images that are as good as a well done animation, on the other hand, is a lot easier and less draining to hold.
