eij does have "光入力 optical input"
  Comments:
I find that words that don't get real hits on Google without quotation marks are usually not real words. (and if they have high hits in the ngrams it'll be from misparsing)

  Comments:
Which is why I never use Google with Japanese search terms without quotes. There is a clear mismatch between the n-grams and the Google returns, but the KM n-grams, which use better parsing, are similar. I don't know what's happening but there are enough real hits for me to accept it.

Is this really correct? Most of the hits I get for 光入力 (when searching on google without quote marks) are false positives

  Comments:
Very much 光 + 入力, but probably common enough. As a prefix meaning "optical" the reading is almost always ひかり. When searching for ひかりにゅうりょく, Google suggests 光入力. MeCab/Unidic agrees.
