Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Damage to the corpus callosum and the left occipital lobe can lead to alexia without agraphia, a condition where a person loses the ability to read but can still write. This is because the visual information from the right visual field cannot be transmitted to the language areas in the left hemisphere due to the corpus callosum damage, while writing ability is preserved as it does not rely solely on the damaged pathways.
