approach trick question?

Am I not understanding the concept right, or was i given wrong info..

the question is: What is the difference between a VMC approach and a visual approach?

I know that a visual approach is done in VMC conditions while on a IFR flight plan, so the answer should be, there is no difference, right??

The only difference i can see is that under a VMC approach, the crew must keep own separation, whereas with a visual approach you are afforded traffic separation..

any comments??
