How does glaucoma work?
Glaucoma is usually associated with an increase in the pressure inside the eye. This increase occurs in front of the iris in a fluid called the aqueous humor.
When too much aqueous humor is produced and fluid pressure builds up in the eyeball's the condition is called?
When too much aqueous humor is produced and fluid pressure builds up in the eyeball, the condition is called
When you exert force on a fluid in a closed container does the pressure increase decrease or remain constant?
When force is exerted on a fluid in a closed container, the pressure will increase. This is because pressure is directly proportional to the force applied to a fluid.
Will an increase in capillary pressure shift fluid into the capillaries?
An increase in capillary pressure will shift fluid into or out of the capillaries
What is elevated in glaucoma?
Inside human eye there is fluid called aqueous humor fluid which is secreted continuously and also drained continuously to outside the eye. Sometime to known and unknown causes, the drainage will be blocked or the secretion will increase or both causing the intraocular pressure of the aqueous humor high, leading to glaucoma
If the pressure in a fluid is affected what characteristic of that fluid?
If the pressure in a fluid is changed, its density is typically affected. In general, an increase in pressure leads to an increase in density, while a decrease in pressure results in a decrease in density.
Is a fluid compressable?
A fluid which is reduced in volume by an increase in pressure.
What is the effect on the pressure of a fluid if an outside pressure is applied?
If an outside pressure is applied to a fluid, the pressure inside the fluid will increase. This is because the outside pressure adds to the existing pressure of the fluid, resulting in a higher overall pressure.
What is aquaous humor?
Aqueous humor is a clear fluid that fills the front chamber of the eye. It is continuously produced and drained to help maintain eye pressure and nourish the surrounding tissues, such as the cornea and lens. Imbalance in aqueous humor production or drainage can lead to conditions such as glaucoma.
What is the watery fluid that fills much of the eyeball in front of the crystalline lens?
The watery fluid that fills much of the eyeball in front of the crystalline lens is called the aqueous humor. It helps to maintain the shape of the eye, provides nutrients to the surrounding tissues, and helps to maintain eye pressure.
What happens when to fluid when its temperature increase?
its pressure increases
What happens to a fluid when its temperature increase?
its pressure increases
