[131I] Albumin and [ 125I]- [gamma] -globulin were used to mark the bulk flow of aqueous humor in young cynomolgus monkeys. In living animals, at a normal intraocular pressure of about 11 mmHg, the net formation of aqueous humor was 1. 24 [plus or minus] 0.13[mu]l/min. The rate of drainage by way of uveo-scleral routes was 0. 44 [plus or minus] 0. 06 [mu]l/min and by way of conventional routes was 0. 80 [plus or minus] 0.11 [mu] l/min. At an intraocular pressure artificially raised to 22 mmHg by an extra inflow, the outflow from the anterior chamber by way of uveo-scleral routes was 0. 63 [plus or minus] 0. 08 [mu]l/min and by way of conventional routes was 4.18 [plus or minus] 0.12 [mu]l/min. It is suggested that, in the pressure region investigated, a change in intraocular pressure produces almost the same change in tissue pressure in the uvea and in the suprachoroid and that this explains why the outflow by way of uveo-scleral routes was so alike at the different pressures investigated. After death, at an intraocular pressure artificially raised to 14 mmHg by an inflow of about 5 [mu]l/min, the mean outflow from the anterior chamber by way of uveo-scleral routes was 1. 25 [plus or minus] 0.17 [mu]l/min.
