Detailed explanation-1: -Background: Occipital stroke patients mainly showed cortical blindness and unilateral vision loss; memory is generally reserved. Recent reports from neuroimaging show the occipital lobe may be involved in the processing of implicit memory (IM), especially the perception type of IM processing.
Detailed explanation-2: -When the occipital lobes of the brain are completely affected by a stroke, it causes total vision loss. This is called “cortical blindness.”5 It means the vision loss was caused by damage to the cortex of the brain.
Detailed explanation-3: -The occipital lobe is the visual processing area of the brain. It is associated with visuospatial processing, distance and depth perception, color determination, object and face recognition, and memory formation.
