"In relation to its function in dreaming, one case report describes the total loss of dreams in a patient who suffered bilateral deep occipital lobe infarcts (including the right inferior lingual gyrus) in the absence of any other neuropsychological deficits. This condition has previously been described in the literature and is known as Charcot-Wilbrand syndrome, and is usually associated with prosopagnosia, topographagnosia and visual irreminiscence (an inability to recall visual images in dreams during wakefulness) 8."
