Anopsia. Scheme showing central connections of the optic nerves and optic tracts. (Lesions at different locations relate to different types of anopsias.) An anopsia (from Ancient Greek ἀν- (an-) 'without', and ὄψις (opsis) 'sight') is a defect in the visual field. If the defect is only partial, then the portion of the field with the ...
Cyclotropia is a form of strabismus in which, compared to the correct positioning of the eyes, there is a torsion of one eye (or both) about the eye's visual axis. Consequently, the visual fields of the two eyes appear tilted relative to each other. The corresponding latent condition – a condition in which torsion occurs only in the absence ...
Intraocular hemorrhage (sometimes called hemophthalmos or hemophthalmia) is bleeding inside the eye ( oculus in Latin ). Bleeding can occur from any structure of the eye where there is vasculature or blood flow, including the anterior chamber, vitreous cavity, retina, choroid, suprachoroidal space, or optic disc. [1]
Polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy (PCV) is an eye disease primarily affecting the choroid. It may cause sudden blurring of vision or a scotoma in the central field of vision. Since Indocyanine green angiography gives better imaging of choroidal structures, it is more preferred in diagnosing PCV. Treatment options of PCV include careful ...
That means 95,676,260,903,887,607 primes (nearly 10 17), but they were not stored. There are known formulae to evaluate the prime-counting function (the number of primes smaller than a given value) faster than computing the primes. This has been used to compute that there are 1,925,320,391,606,803,968,923 primes (roughly 2 × 10 21) smaller ...
An esophageal motility disorder ( EMD) is any medical disorder resulting from dysfunction of the coordinated movement of esophagus, which causes dysphagia (i.e. difficulty in swallowing, regurgitation of food). [1] Primary Motility Disorders are: [1] An esophageal motility disorder can also be secondary to other diseases. [1]

Choroideremia (/ k ɒ ˌ r ɔɪ d ɪ ˈ r iː m i ə /; CHM) is a rare, X-linked recessive form of hereditary retinal degeneration that affects roughly 1 in 50,000 males. The disease causes a gradual loss of vision, starting with childhood night blindness, followed by peripheral vision loss and progressing to loss of central vision later in life.
