I have this too. I actually found out after finishing two years of electrical engineering with a 3.9 GPA, so I don't think the condition has much impact on your ability to learn engineering. When I first found out about this, people asked me "how do you do math?" Apparently, many people visualize a piece of paper in their head and figure out the solution with that. This seems very inefficient to me, and the people who asked this were all bad to mediocre at math. This condition has led me to thinking in a much more abstract way that is hard to explain. This seems like a much better way to think about many engineering topics. Programming is very natural for me because it forces you to think about your code as an abstract system, which is what I do naturally.
