| intracranial part of optic nerve | <anatomy, nerve> The portion of the optic nerve between the optic canal and the optic chiasm. Synonym: pars intracranialis nervi optici. (05 Mar 2000) |
| intralaminar part of optic nerve | <anatomy, nerve> The portion of the optic nerve as it passes through the lamina cribrosa of the sclera. Synonym: pars intralaminaris nervi optici. (05 Mar 2000) |
| intraocular part of optic nerve | <anatomy, nerve> The part of the optic nerve within the eye; it is divided into intralaminar, postlaminar, and prelaminar parts. Synonym: pars intraocularis nervi optici. (05 Mar 2000) |

| Leber's hereditary optic atrophy | Hereditary degeneration of the optic nerve and papillomacular bundle with resulting rapid loss of central vision, progressive for several weeks, then usually stationary with permanent central scotoma; age of onset is variable, most often in the third decade; more males than females are affected and transmission is cytoplasmic and strictly on the female side. Mutation on the mitochondrial chromosome involved, which presumably interacts with an X-linked mutant. This mechanism may explain the bizarre sex ratio, which differs significantly from one country to another. (05 Mar 2000) |
