Behind the parietal lobe, at the very back of your head, lie your occipital lobes. This part of your brain is, simply, in charge of your vision. Problems in the occipital lobes can lead to many difficulties in visual processing including blank areas in your visual field and difficulty locating objects in the environment. You can have problems identifying colors, recognizing printed words, identifying objects, or recognizing motion. A damaged occipital lobe can lead to hallucinations and odd visual illusions.
do you think they'll get you to do the colour-word test again?
i am so suspicious of tests because i know how much i try to manipulate results. like even when i got my eyes tested, i found it hard not to make really good guesses at what the letters were even though they weren't clear. or remember what the letters were from when i read them with my better eye.
when's the next round?
hehe... categorise me!!

I want to try and get better at it.
When my eyes were last tested I was fine. But I was allowed to squint. And then I remembered! And er,r yes...
I make up for my vision too much I think. I can't read menus sometimes. Maybe some colours or lighting conditions or days are worse than others.
I think I need new glasses though, but I cannot afford them :(
I really don't know how much I categorise things. Either I do it a lot without noticing, or I don't do it much at all.
I suppose it could be said that I categorise everything into little place holders. Does that count?
My cellphone went missing AGES ago. I'm sure I would have told you such. But it's not like I use TXTing anyway.
We should hang out sometime. Although, I did know that you had texted Rhiannon.
Get in touch :)
