Visual Memory

Accuracy of visual memory Visual Memory Visual memory is recollected information about what one has seen. It involves both the mental storage of such information and the ability to retrieve it. The recalled image of a sunset, the memory of a font type, the remembrance of a tree's appearance: these are all instances of visual memory. Psychologists refer to visual memory to help account for memory in general. It is distinct from other kinds of memory, such as auditory memory (recollection of what one has heard). Some researchers believe visual memory plays an important role in learning. For example, some learning disabilities (including dyslexia) are linked to poor visual memory, such as the inability to remember the sequence of letters in words.
