Copopsia

/kəˈpɑpsiə/ noun

Definition

A medical or optical condition involving the perception or viewing of something together or from a shared perspective (a rare or specialized term in optics/medicine).

Etymology

From co- (together) plus Greek 'opsis' (seeing/vision). This appears to be a rare or specialized medical term, though it may be archaic or used in very specific optical contexts.

Kelly Says

This is a genuinely obscure term—even most medical dictionaries barely mention it—but it represents the older tradition of naming vision conditions with Greek-based terminology, a practice that continues with words like 'myopia' and 'diplopia.'
