title: Effect of beta-phenylethylamine on intraocular pressure.
abstract: Upon injection of beta-phenylethylamine (PEA) into the subconjunctival space of rabbit, intraocular pressure increased. This effect went parallel with the amount of PEA transferred into the anterior chamber, which indicates that intraocular pressure was elevated by direct action of PEA.
