What is the meaning of Eye opening info?

Does Mid Grades(Upper Grades & Lower Grades) mean the average quality of the signal or the height of the electric eye?
what is the Last Fom and Initial FOM?
Is there a detailed introduction to this aspect?

Hi Rao,
An eye opening is a graphical representation of a series of digital signals accumulated on an oscilloscope, used to analyze the overall characteristics of digital signals and system performance
You can just search it in web.
