The Twelfth Doctor once hacked Clara Oswald's optic nerve using nanotech, allowing him to see whatever she saw, on the TARDIS scanner. (TV: Flatline) When one's optic nerve was "tapped", though, the act could leave behind scars on the supra-orbital ridge, above the eye. (PROSE: War Crimes) In an alternate timeline, the Eleventh Doctor was partially upgraded into the Cyberiad.
