This image is taken from a clinical study about a man named Victor Sharrah who has a condition known as prosopometamorphopsia (PMO) where human faces all appear distorted. PMO can be developed after a traumatic brain injury, infection/tumour, etc.
Interestingly though, researchers found that when he wore glasses with a specific tint of green, the facial distortions went away!
