Abstract
In cats anesthetized with pentobarbital Na, a highly significant correlation was found between the rate of aqueous humor production and eye arterial perfusion pressure (blood pressure minus intraocular pressure). The filtration coefficient for water was 0.312 μl min––1 mm Hg––1. This value is not significantly different from those reported earlier for enucleated, arterially perfused eyes of the same species.
