title: [A contribution to the study of the correlation between the depth of the anterior chamber and the coefficient of aqueous humor outflow (author's transl)].
abstract: The depth of the anterior chamber was measured and the coefficient of the aqueous humor outflow was ascertained by means of tonography in 88 normal eyes. The mean value of the depth of the anterior chamber established was 2095+/-0.42 and the median value of the outflow coefficient of the aqueous humor was found to be 0.27+/-0.07. Both values showed a regular distribution. A statistically significant correlation was established between the two values. Expressed through a correlation coefficient this would mean in practice that the coefficient of aqueous humor outflow is affected up to 10 percent by the value of the depth of the anterior chamber.
