Quantification of the mechanical properties of the iris is necessary to assess the clinical significance of passive iris deformation, which has been suggested as a mechanism for certain forms of glaucoma. Extension tests were performed on isolated bovine irises to determine the passive mechanical be

The iris of the toad Bufo marinus is directly photosensitive and will constrict in response to light striking only the iris. This is true even when the iris is isolated from the rest of the eye, and therefore from reflex neuronal influences initiated in the retina. This autonomous response is probab

The occurrence, distribution, and origin of immunoreactive calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) in nerves of rat, guinea pig, cat, and monkey eyes were investigated by immunocytochemistry, radioimmunoassay, and chromatography. A rich network of CGRP-immunoreactive nerve fibres was noted in the ant
