Visual Perceptual/Visual Motor Deficit

Visual perceptual and visual motor deficits refer to difficulties in interpreting visual information and coordinating visual input with motor responses. This can manifest as challenges in understanding shapes, letters, and symbols, or trouble with handwriting and drawing. In the context of learning disabilities, these deficits can affect a person's ability to read, write, and engage in tasks that require hand-eye coordination. Individuals may struggle with tasks like recognizing letters, copying text, or manipulating objects accurately, impacting their overall learning and academic performance. Addressing these challenges often involves specialized educational strategies and interventions.
