Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Visual agnosia, the inability to recognize common objects, is associated with damage to the ventral stream of the visual system. This pathway is responsible for processing and interpreting visual information related to object recognition and perception. Damage to other parts of the visual system, such as the feature detectors, superior colliculus or lateral geniculate nucleus, may impact other aspects of visual processing, but not necessarily object recognition.
