Optic

A pituitary tumour may compress the optic tracts or the optic chiasm of the optic nerve (II), leading to visual field loss.

The optic disc, a part of the retina sometimes called "the blind spot" because it lacks photoreceptors, is located at the optic papilla, a nasal zone where the optic-nerve fibres leave the eye.

Fibre optic links connect major cities and network capacity has been upgraded using fibre optic technology platforms such as Dense Wave Division Multiplexing (DWDM).

Fiber-optic lines connect the major cities and Georgia and Bulgaria are connected with fiber-optic line between Poti and Varna (Bulgaria).

Inflammation of the optic nerve causes loss of vision, usually because of the swelling and destruction of the myelin sheath covering the optic nerve.

It is also known as optic papillitis (when the head of the optic nerve is involved) and retrobulbar neuritis (when the posterior of the nerve is involved).

Lee, 2003 North Korean press reported in 2000 that fiber-optic cable had been extended to the port of Nampho and that North Pyong'an Province had been connected with fiber-optic cable.

Optic nerve sheath fenestration is an ophthalmological operation that involves the making of an incision in the connective tissue lining of the optic nerve in its portion behind the eye.

The ophthalmological findings usually can show a bilateral oedema of the optic disk in the acute phase, followed by a bilateral optic atrophy.

The results of reflection from a magneto-optic material are known as the magneto-optic Kerr effect (not to be confused with the nonlinear Kerr effect ).

Anyone digging underground in Colorado is required to call 811 to find out where various power lines, fiber optic cables and natural gas pipes are buried.

Crown ElectroKinetics is dedicated to designing and installing optical switching films as well as constructing fiber optic networks and installing of distributed antenna systems ().

Fibre optic cabling underneath the promenade also provides very high-speed internet connections in the area too.

Glaucoma is part of a group of diseases that damage the eye’s central nerve, also known as the optic nerve.

In 1928 the gas plant was discontinued, and the light changed to vapourised paraffin, the lantern was rebuilt, and a reconstructed two-tier optic, rotating in a trough of mercury was installed.

In addition to transmitting data at faster speeds, fiber-optic cables are more energy-efficient, more durable and less susceptible to elements such as water and electromagnetic interference, according to Hawaiian Telcom.

McClure said that the Middle-Mile project will be completely implemented by December 2026 but the work to close the gap really starts after the last fiber optic is installed.

Roughly a third of Windstream's network -- which spans rural and suburban areas across 18 states -- is fiber optic.

Some 500 kilometres of fibre optic cable have been laid as a result.
