Аннотация: Processes of fluid exchange in the crystalline lens of the rabbit eye were investigated. The direction of movement of fluid in the crystalline lens was investigated from the movement of fluorescein by the method of stopped diffusion. It has been found that the mechanism of fluid transport in the crystalline lens is active and is caПоказать полностьюrried out by means of the Na-K-ATPase transport system. The energy necessary for the active transport of fluid inside the crystalline lens is in the range (1.5-6)(.)10(-2) J. Owing to the active fluid transport, the pressure inside the crystalline lens constantly increases by 6 mm Hg. In rabbit's life-time, the movement of fluid in the crystalline lens occurs in the direction from the anterior to the posterior surface followed by the exit to vitreous humor.
