Edited:
Do people with damage to their visual cortex lose the ability to read, as well as identify objects?

DrowNz:
yep, it refers to the severe impairment of the ability to understand spoken or written words.

jess3254:
Yeah, thanks I thought so.

My teacher just really confused me. My fault.

Nick:
Hmmm I'm surprised your teacher "wasn't sure".  :o

jess3254:
LOL oops I actually meant people with damage to their visual cortex! NOT wernicke's aphasia...

The guy who 'mistook his wife for a hat' - people who have perfect vision but can't interpret what they're seeing... can they read?

ahh sorry my mind is a bit drifty today... i can't believe i confused that
