What is the name of the Liquid present in Human Eyes ???

Parth (parthkohli):

More commonly known as "tears", the liquid is secreted by the Lacrimal gland. (Did I spell it correctly?)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I forgot the name of that.. They are not tears I am looking for.. Tears are just salty water..

Parth (parthkohli):

Is that the one with intra--- something? I studied it in Science... forgot that name.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes I did study it in Science.. I will have to download the book now for getting that name.. A Long name it has..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

But I am not sure yet..

Parth (parthkohli):

I googled it up and got Aqueous Humor.

Parth (parthkohli):

Yeah! There it is! Intraocular fluid!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Intraocular Fluid ?? I am not sure yet...

Parth (parthkohli):

Inside the eye the liquid is called AQEUOUS HUMOR and VITREOUS HUMOUR.It is a clear fluid composed mainly of water and minerals.The outside of the eye is lubricated by tears,which is secreted by the lacrimal gland. Read more: http://wiki.answers.com/Q/What_is_the_liquid_in_your_eyes#ixzz25C3dLpxC

Parth (parthkohli):

Aqueous humor is the clear, watery fluid that is continually produced inside the eye. It is different from your tears. Tears are produced by glands outside of the eye and moisten the outer surface of the eyeball. Read more: http://www.glaucoma.org/glaucoma/anatomy-of-the-eye.php

I appreciate your help.. @Parthkohli .. But I still think that name is different that I had studied.. I will confirm it and then I will post that here..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Or may be my question is wrong..

Parth (parthkohli):

I'm very sorry :( not a true Biologist, thus using all the resources around me. I hope you are comfortable with that. =)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Parth (parthkohli):
