Anterior Chamber (Aqueous Humor) |
| Written by Bruce Cooper |
|
The aqueous humor is situated at the front of the eye behind the cornea and in front of the lens. It is a jelly-like, watery substance that fills a chamber known as the anterior chamber of the eye. It also fills a chamber called the posterior chamber.
The aqueous humor fills the chambers to provide nutrients to the lens, and its pressure maintains the convex shape of the cornea. |
