Agnosia (a-gnosis, "non-knowledge", or loss of knowledge) is a loss of ability to recognize objects, persons, sounds, shapes or smells while the specific sense is not defective nor is there any significant memory loss. It is usually associated with brain injury or neurological illness, particularly after damage to the temporal lobe.
Types
- Visual agnosia is associated with lesions of the left occipital lobe and temporal lobes. Many patients have severe visual field defects.
