Abstract

Arterial perfusion of isolated cat eyes with arachidonic acid (AA) increases the inflow of aqueous humor (AH), elevates the intraocular pressure (IOP) and constricts the pupil. The effect may be due to an observed vasoconstrictive action of AA on the blood vessels of the anterior segment of the eye. Indomethacin completely prevents the increase in AH formation and the constriction of the pupil but does not block the rise in IOP.
