📋Overview
Primary visual agnosia is a neurological disorder characterized by the inability to recognize or interpret visual information despite having intact vision and normal visual acuity. It is a form of visual agnosia where the deficit lies in the brain's processing of visual stimuli rather than in the eyes themselves. This condition is typically caused by damage to the occipital lobe or the visual association areas of the brain. It is distinct from other types of agnosia that affect recognition through other senses or involve memory deficits.
