James's brain injury has resulted in him not being able to process information about the things he sees around him or to react to them appropriately. in the context of the cerebral cortex, which of his brain regions is most likely to be damaged?
The occipital lobe is a part of the brain located at the bottom and back of the brain (see attached image). This part of the brain is primarily responsible for processing and making sense of visual information we receive from our eyes. Damage or trauma to the occipital lobe leads to "visual confusion"- not being able to properly process or assign meaning to visual information.
