Abstract
Cerebral achromatopsia describes the loss of perceived colour following damage to certain areas of the visual cortex. The brain lesions causing such a syndrome are bilateral when both visual hemifields are affected and localised outside V1 in the lingual and fusiform gyri (Meadows, 1974; Zeki, 1990(a,b); Plant, 1991).
