Visual Perception, what is it? - Visual perception is the brain's ability to receive, interpret and act upon visual stimuli. Visual perception does not have anything to do with eyesight. It is the communication between the brain and our senses.

Visual spatial relations- The concept of where two objects are in relation to something else.
Sequential memory- Ability to remember and recall a sequence in the correct order.
Visual Discrimination- Ability to distinguish differences and classify objects, symbols or shapes.
