The optically determined corneal and anterior chamber volumes of the cynomolgus monkey.

We described an optical method of measuring corneal volume and employed the optical method of Johnson et al. for measuring the volume of the anterior chamber in cynomolgus monkey. In 12 normal monkey eyes, the corneal volume was found to be 40.4 +/- 2.3 microliter (mean +/- S.E.) and the anterior chamber volume was 101.8 +/- 4.2 microliter (mean +/- S.E.).
