Which skill measures the integration of visual input with hand movements?

• A. Visual memory
• B. Visual discrimination
• C. Eye-hand coordination
• D. Depth perception

Answer: (C)

Eye-hand coordination is about using what you see to guide how your hand moves in real time. This means the visual input informs motor planning and execution so the hand can reach, grasp, or manipulate objects accurately. That integration is what makes eye-hand coordination essential for everyday tasks like feeding, writing, or playing with toys, where you must continuously align vision with hand actions.

Visual memory involves recalling visual information after seeing it, so it doesn't capture real-time guiding of movement. Visual discrimination is about telling different visual details apart, not about coordinating movement with vision. Depth perception is about judging how far away something is, which supports movement but doesn’t describe the on-the-spot integration of seeing and moving.
