Difference between Bitemporal hemianopsia and Optic nerve

Bitemporal hemianopsia vs. Optic nerve

Bitemporal hemianopsia, also known as bitemporal heteronymous hemianopsia or bitemporal hemianopia, is the medical description of a type of partial blindness where vision is missing in the outer half of both the right and left visual field. The optic nerve, also known as cranial nerve II, is a paired nerve that transmits visual information from the retina to the brain.
