Excellent explanation & examples; everything elucidated effectively.
I don't understand the final example though. Is the memory device just to help you remember some of the letters in the name and the symptom or is there some connection my brain doesn't make that yours does? HoMoNymous - HerMioNe, HemiAn - HArry, OPIa - OPIum?
The word "homonymous" takes care of itself in my case, since it's a word I'm familiar with already. The "hermianopia" bit is a not-quite-portmanteau of "hermione" and "opium".
