Akram sustained head injury due to an accident, and consequently he lost his vision, though his eyes were intact. On which specialised lobe of his brain might he have sustained the injury?

  • A.Temporal lobe
  • B.Frontal lobe
  • C.Occipital lobe
  • D.Parietal lobe

Answer: C

Loss of vision with intact eyes points to damage to the occipital lobe, the part of the cerebral cortex that receives and interprets visual information from the eyes. The temporal lobe is mainly concerned with hearing and memory, the frontal lobe with planning and movement, and the parietal lobe with touch and spatial awareness.
