Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Visual agnosia is a type of visual processing disorder where a person is unable to recognize common objects despite having normal vision. It is associated with damage to the ventral stream of the visual pathway, which is responsible for object recognition and perception. The other options, such as the lateral geniculate nucleus and superior colliculus, are associated with other aspects of visual processing. The dorsal stream is involved in spatial perception and action.
