[Distribution of labeled cortisol in the tissues and media of the eye].

Incorporation of cortizol-3H and its uptake by the tissues and media of the eye was studied to expose the target tissue for the given hormone. Cortizol distribution was investigated in the sclera, ciliary body, cornea, iris, the lens capsule, aqeous humour, and the vitreous body. It was shown that the eye tissues and media had different intensity of cortizol incorporation, as well as different character of its elimination. The sclera, cornea, ciliary body and the lens capsule proved to be the target tissues for cortizol.
