I agree in that both are pretty close, but I think of vision as input processing and graphics as output processing, something like what jomoenginer described in his comment. I think the blurred line between the two of them is the concept of image processing (as stated in the graphics option in the poll). If you process images from a sensor (a camera) to detect something, I would say that is a Vision project. If you process an image (as an information unit,) that you are trying to display (maybe a projection transformation, smoothing surfaces or generating motion effect), I would say it is Graphics. And a big project could include both areas.
