Occipital Lobe Injury Attorneys in Los Angeles
Put 40+ Years of Experience on Your Side With Biren Law Group
Located in the rear part of the brain, the occipital lobe's major functions include visual perception and color recognition. Due to its location deep in the brain the occipital lobe is the least often injured region of the brain.
This often makes it difficult to properly diagnose a brain injury to the occipital lobe because other areas of the brain, like the parietal lobe, also affect visual perception. At Biren Law Group, we’ve successfully handled a broad range of brain injury cases.
Our firm knows what it takes to fully identify and analyze every aspect of a brain injury, including occipital lobe injuries. We work with doctors and other specialists who fully understand the magnitude of brain injuries and can help us obtain maximum compensation on your behalf.

What Happens When the Occipital Lobe is Damaged?
Unlike other parts of the brain that juggle many functions of the body and mind, the occipital lobe's function specializes in vision. When there is occipital lobe damage, the symptoms will in turn be directly related to your visual function. However, symptoms are not limited to just losing one's vision.
Most occipital lobe injuries involve some variation of visual impairment, such as:
- Partial loss of visual field, called a visual field cut
- Reading and writing impairments
- Hallucinations
- Inability to identify different colors (color agnosia)
- Inability to identify the movement of objects (object agnosia)
