Differentiate aqueous humor and vitreous humor
Aqueous Humor
It occurs in aqueous chamber
It is watery fluid
It is secreted by ciliary processes
It is continuously absorbed into blood and
replaced
It contains most of the diffusible substances of
plasma
Obstruction in its flow may damage retina by
increasing intraocular pressure
Maintains the shape of the cornea and supply
nutrition to both lens and cornea
Vitreous Humor
It occurs in vitreous chamber
It is jelly like substance
It is apparently secreted by retina during the
development of eye
It is absorbed or replaced
It consist of water 90%, protein
vitrein,hyaluronic acid and collagen fibres
It does not flow
Maintains the shape of the eye ball and
contribute to intraocular pressure and also to
the focussing on light of retina
