What is the difference between 覚える and 見覚える?


I only have basic 和英 definitions to go on, but I'm guessing the nuance is that
覚える has more to do with things you learn or study, and 見覚える is more like
remembering experiences. Or is there something more, or are they just
synonymous?




From [`Yahoo`](http://dic.yahoo.co.jp/dsearch/0/0ss/118679100000/)

[code]

    見覚える：  
     1. 見て覚える。
     2. 前に見て覚えている。
    
[/code]

So you see something and memorize it. I think you can associate to visual
memory.
