For example I, 1, or l (lowercase L) can be indistinguishable from one another depending on the persons writing style. The same for the number 0 and the letter O.

Is there a word for letters that are visually distinct and are not easily misread due to handwriting or character display?

I might use graphically dissimilar.

If you wanted to coin a new word, I would be okay with heterographs.
