Aqeous humor is a fluid secreted by the uvea, that circulates inside the eye to supply nutrition to the internal structures and also maintains the shape and integrity of the globe by generating optimal pressure inside the eye,before draining out of the eye through a very fine Trabecular mesh work located in the front of the eye.Any obstruction to the internal circulation of aqeous leads to GLAUCOMA (pressure build up inside the eye).Glaucoma,if left untreated leads to progressive damage to the optic Nerve with resultant progressive loss of vision resulting in a tunnel vision before finally producing blindness. Glaucoma specialists deal with various aspects of this disease which may affect any age group including  the newborn.
