Definitions of aqueous humor
Definition that contains aqueous humor
  • adrenergic agonist eyedrop a treatment for glaucoma; the eyedrops reduce intraocular pressure by decreasing the production of aqueous humor and increasing its drainage through the uveoscleral pathway
  • sinus venosus sclerae a circular canal in the eye that drains aqueous humor from the anterior chamber of the eye into the anterior ciliary veins
  • closed-angle glaucoma glaucoma in which the iris blocks the outflow of aqueous humor
  • laser trabecular surgery eye surgery that makes many tiny laser burns in an area that will increase the drainage of aqueous humor
  • angle-closure glaucoma glaucoma in which the iris blocks the outflow of aqueous humor
  • filtration surgery eye surgery that opens a passage allowing excess aqueous humor to drain into surrounding tissues; a treatment for glaucoma
  • miotic eyedrop a treatment for glaucoma; the eyedrops increase the outflow of aqueous humor by constricting the pupil
  • topical prostaglandin eyedrop a treatment for glaucoma; the eyedrops increase the outflow of aqueous humor through the uveoscleral pathway
  • beta blocker eyedrop a treatment for glaucoma; the eyedrops reduce intraocular pressure by reducing the production of aqueous humor
  • intraocular pressure pressure exerted by the fluids inside the eyeball; regulated by resistance to the outward flow of aqueous humor
