I think they were made with [Image Occlusion Enhanced](https://ankiweb.net/shared/info/1374772155) rather than native Anki feature, try downloading the add-on and try to edit

If you rename the note type of the notes to _Image Occlusion Enhanced_ (assuming it doesn’t exist yet in your collection), or change the note type to an existing _Image Occlusion Enhanced_ note type, editing should work again.
