Fig. 6

Simplified ocular model of a spherical vitreous with partial aqueous shell. This model contains the gap representing the retrozonular space of Petit. (a) Entire 2-D geometry, which when rotated about the horizontal axis produces the model in three dimensions. (b) Close-up showing features near the fluid inlet (similar features as in Fig. 5b). This model inserts a gap representing the space of Petit which expands the area of contact between aqueous humor and the vitreous medium, increasing the opportunity of transport between these compartments.
