Abstract
Gross changes in the in vivo primate eye are reported which result from the intraocular infusion of 100 mM sodium aspartate at a rate of 0.25 c.c. per hour. Within 30 minutes after starting the infusion, there is an extraordinary vasoconstriction of the retinal vasculature, and within 3 hours, there is the formation of a posterior cataract which looks like lamellar separation.
