In twenty cases, human vitreous humor glucose concentrations were measured with five different methods in common use. Striking differences in glucose values were obtained by the various analytical procedures. The reasons for these discrepancies remain obscure. Before interpretation of a given vitreous value, therefore, the analytical method employed must be known.
