Color agnosia from the Greek agn sia , ignorance or non knowledge , is a medical or psychological condition that prevents a person from correctly associating hue names with common objects. The sufferer retains the ability of distinguishing hues. It is a specific form of agnosia and generally results from damage to the visual cortex , often in V4 as opposed to most other kinds of color blindness, which stem from problems with the photoreceptor cell s . Notes Color agnosia is different than color anomia , a condition in which a person can distinguish between colors but cannot connect those colors to their names. Failure to investigate color agnosia may lead to late diagnosis of brain cancer.

Apperceptive Agnosia is the visual disorder that renders a person unable to recognize objects. It is also known as visual space agnosia . Distinction between shapes is difficult, although other aspects of Visual perception vision , such as ability to see detail and colour, remain intact. Recognition of, copying and discriminating between visual stimuli, even of different shapes, is problematic. Apperceptive agnosics cannot complete an object matching task. Because they are unable to recognize even simple shapes, Apperceptive agnosia is considered a problem in the early part of the visual processing system. As contrasted with patients diagnosed Associative agnosia , who are able to recognize simple shapes and even copy complex shapes drawing of an anchor, for example but are unable to recognize what an object is. In both cases, identification of objects is entirely based on inferences made by the person based on the colour, size, social, or contextual cues. A variant of apperceptive agnosia is the inability to recognize objects outside of their normal rotation or orientation.

Auditory agnosia is a form of agnosia that manifests primarily in the inability to recognize or differentiate between sounds . It is not a defect of the ear, but a neurological inability of the brain to process what the sound means. Persons with auditory agnosia can physically hear the sounds and describe them using unrelated terms, but are unable to recognize them. They might describe the sound of some environmental sounds, such as a motor starting, as resembling a lion roaring, but would not be able to associate the sound with car or engine , nor would they say that it was a lion creating the noise. ref Human Neuropsychology.

Hermann Wilbrand May 22, 1851 &ndash 1935 was a German ophthalmologist born in Giessen . Wilbrand s father and grandfather were also physicians. In 1875 he earned his doctorate at the University of Strassburg , and afterwards was an assistant to Ludwig Laqueur 1839 1909 at Strassburg and to Carl Friedrich Richard F rster 1825 1902 at Breslau . Later he moved to Hamburg , where he became head of the Department of Ophthalmology at Allgemeines Hospital in 1905. Wilbrand specialized in the field of neuro ophthalmology and did extensive research involving the pathology and physiology of the eye. He demonstrated that homonymous hemianopsia was caused by lesions in the occipital lobe and optic radiation as well as the optic tract .
