positive charge to the sphere. 2. Laser Printer The core component of this system is the photoreceptor‚ typically a revolving drum or cylinder. The drum is positively charged by the charge corona wire‚ a wire with an electrical current running through it. As the drum revolves‚ the printer shines a tiny laser beam across the surface to discharge certain points. In this way‚ the laser "draws" the letters and images to be printed as a pattern of electrical charges

Glaucoma Glaucoma is a group of eye disorders that cause blindness by hurting the optic nerve‚ which is the large nerve that is responsible for vision. In glaucoma‚ the optic nerve damage is related to a change in the fluid pressure that circulates around the eyeball. In many cases‚ Glaucoma occurs when the eye’s fluid pressure is high‚ but it can also occur when the pressure is measured as normal. Fluid circulating inside the front portion of the eye is produced by a structure called the ciliary
