Fig. 1. Variation in intraocular oxygen partial pressure (PO) during embryonic development and following treatment with 50% O2. An optode was used to measure PO in the anterior vitreous (open symbols) and mid-vitreous (filled symbols) of normoxic chicken embryos (circles). Some embryos were incubated from E7 to E13 in an atmosphere of 50% O2:50% N2. Measurements made on those embryos (triangles), at E13, indicated that hyperoxia results in a significant increase in PO in both the anterior and mid-vitreous.
