title: Blood flow in the microvasculature of the conjunctiva of man.
abstract: Cinephotomicrography of capillary blood flow in conjunctival vessels of man were carried out at 116 pictures per second. Red cells did not move in streamlines but rather in a heterogenous mixing type of flow. Flow in vessels of patients whose red cells were grossly aggregated was very slow and often stagnant.
