Abstract

Inner surface of the trabecular meshwork in eighteen human eyes between 5 and 80 years of age were studied by means of the wet replica technique. Three different kinds of age changes can occur separately and differ not only with respect to age, but also within the same age group, and even within the same eye. They all begin mostly in small, circumscribed areas at the comeal margin and from there they can eventually encroach upon the whole circumference of the anterior chamber angle. The replica technique has definite advantages for this type of investigation.
