Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Apperceptive visual agnosia is a type of visual agnosia where the patient has difficulty perceiving and interpreting visual information. Patients with this dysfunction may have difficulty matching pictures of the same object taken from different vantage points, as they are not able to integrate the different views into a coherent whole. Anomia refers to difficulty in naming objects or finding the right words for what you want to say. Alexia refers to difficulty in reading, while associative visual agnosia refers to difficulty in recognizing objects despite intact visual perception.
