[2025-10-02T04:28:29.066770] [PI reasoning] **Exploring optic chiasm lesions**

I need to answer what happens when the optic chiasm is interrupted. This results in a condition known as bitemporal heteronymous hemianopia due to how the nasal retinal fibers cross, leading to loss of the temporal visual field in both eyes. So, the answer is A. I might want to include a citation, perhaps from a neuroanatomy textbook or a quick search for relevant evidence on this condition. Let’s go ahead and do that!
